What cpu would you recommend for a server that will be mainly running 2-3 game servers (source based games).

AMD X6 1045
AMD X4 955
Intel i3 2100

All three are the same price at microcenter so price isnt a factor.

The system will have a Intel X25-V 40GB as a boot drive and a 1TB standard HDD with 8GB DDR3 memory, running Windows Server 2008r2.
 
What's the price difference between the X4 and X6? 2 - 3 source games will not consume more than a single core per game, so an x4 will handle 2 - 3 games, however an X6 will allow you to run more than 2 - 3 and personally it's what I'd want in a server if I had the budget for it.
