The more i look into this the dual xeon is not that good unless you have software that is tweaked for smp.

on standard gaming and everyday use the ddr333 and cpu's 533fsb is left behind by a single p4 of the same speed but with 800fsb and ddr400.

Plus the asus pc-dl as it stands has very limited overclocking just fsb no core voltage adjustment or pci lock.

anandtech review of the pc-dl delux

damn i got a real bargin with the xeon cpu's but it's not worth spending over £500 to get a system working that wont give me that much over my p4 @3287.

I would be better off getting a fx5900 or ati 9800 pro (the 9800 sounds better at the moment with the dx9 problems of the fx cards)

It would make a nice folder though

anyone intersted in a couple of 2.6ghz xeons ?
