Core i7 930 VS Dual Xeon E5-2609

Mon 13 May '13, 8:10pm

We're planning to upgrade our dedicated hosting plan. The rest of the specs seems to be superior than our current plan.
Im not sure about the CPU though. Which is better, an intel core i7 930 or dual intel xeon e5-2609? Is there a significant difference between the 2 processors in terms of overall performance?

Technically the 930 is a Desktop based CPU, but it still out classes the 2609 in a few departments as a single vs single cpu test.

Dual 2609 would out perform a single 930
