Yes X5DAE is awesome.

You should get another stick of ram though.

Dual Xeon 2.4ghz vs. Xeon 3.2ghz? which is better in performance??? in general

In general? The dual Xeons. Dual 2.4 vs. single 3.2 is no contest, really.

Now, if you're talking about dual old 1GHz dual Xeons (i have a ton of these boxes at work) vs. a single 3.2, then the 3.2 wins.
