Nope, not sure. It's entirely possible that the client passed me the wrong information. I think it's happened once or twice before. :-)

Why would you go for the slower processor with L2 cache? Will 1MB L2 make more of a difference for a typical DB than a 10% faster processor?

• Original Message ----- Are you sure that 3GHz ones are without any L2 cache? I'd definitely go with 2.8GHz ones with L2 cache in this case...
