just in terms of bandwidth, you're going to be limited w/3TB (or pay overages) a full 7/24 24 man server uses anywhere from 550-650Gb/month. if you do the math a 32 man will use up to 860Gb/month so 4 of those will theoretically use 3.44TB. but since every server is different you'll just have to try and see what numbers you end up with, this is a rough estimate.

if you're not worried about the bandwidth then i think it can certainly handle one server per core.

1 per core will be fine, you *might* have enough left over on each core for a 24 man server using all cores - but possibly not, you'll have to experiment.
Working on 1 per core, if they are full most of the day, you'll exceed your bandwidth limit.
