Since I ventured away from a HTPC I have been considering a multi-processing system.
The main question is will dual/quad 3ghz-ish Xeon (2mb L3 cache) processors perform "as good as/worse/better" than a 3.4ghz northwood extreme processor on its own (gaming-wise)?
My budget is $4000 and a multi-processing system really catches my eye. I am looking for something for video editing and gaming (I do a lot of both).
Thanks
