I got a new server:
Dell 2950 with DRAC
Dual Quad Core Xeon 5405
4 x 1024Gb Hard Drive
16GB Ram
I looking to hold 10 to 12 servers. I need to know how many slots can I push these servers too and on a different note how many slots per core.
I might be able to get Xeon 5410 (even 5420(unlikely)) That is the slot difference between the two models

An i7 is a quad core with hyperthreading. Two quad core will out perform a single i7 easily.

The servers are similar, so the slot count will vary only a few. . .

You need to also consider bandwidth. That server comes with 1024GB or 1536GB a month I take it? Just to give you an idea my single 100tick css server uses 120GB a month, normally around 4 players on.
