I am taking on new server and have the following two processor options:

Dual Core Intel E5200
Six Core AMD Phenom II X6 Thuban

Obviously AMD has 6 cores and it's faster, but it's almost twice the price. I need the server for video streaming, will the 6 core AMD be worth the almost double price over the Inter processor?

What is your opinion?

Thanks
