I am building a new workstation for photo editing and I cannot decide between a Dual Quad Core Intel Xeon Processor E5630- 2.53GHz or a single Six Core Intel Xeon Processor X5660 - 2.8GHz. The motherboard supports dual CPU and I am trying to get the best performance out of my new system for my budget.
I will be running window 7 professional 64bit and mostly using Photoshop, Illustration, InDesign, Lightroom and Microsoft office products.
The other components in the system will be 12 GB of RAM and a 1.0GB NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800.
So the question I have is should I go with Dual Quad Core Intel Xeon Processor E5630- 2.53GHz or a single Six Core Intel Xeon Processor X5660 - 2.8GHz as the cost between the two CPU setups is almost the same.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
