Dedicated Server Advice-Difference between core 2 quad and core 2 duo

[Anay]

Hi

I have my organization who are looking to upgrade their old P4 server with some new but cheaper server. My hosting provider is giving some good server, from cheap core2duo to latest 6 core and I donno many more. Since we don't have very big need but just need a dedicated server for full freedom of resource usage, we want cheaper. Currently we are looking at core2duo or core2quad based server.

Any advice and what is major difference between both....

Definitely cor2duo and core2quad are better than your P4, go for core2quad server if it is cheaper. If you go for core2duo is good but its already not latest, you should go core2quad, it provide you 4 core with which is almost double to core2duo and relatively latest.
