Athlon X2 Dual Core Performance
#1
The Athlon 64 X2 dual core chips are not that much more expensive than the single core chips at the moment.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+ (Socket 939) - £234.94
AMD Athlon 64 3700+ San Diego 90nm (Socket 939) - £176.19

Does anyone know what the performance comparison would be running 2 instances of srcds (ie two simultaneous games) under a 64bit Linux environment like Gentoo? Should I pay the extra money and get the X2 chip or save £50 and stick to the single core?
