Rixon,
Just a suggestion. If you happen to move 2 CPUs then consider AMD64 series CPU (XP,MP,FX,Opteron). Check:

http://www.sun.com/amd/upgrade/#performance-records

I use a series of Intel,AMD based boxes here at work and at home. AMD's practically outperform all their Intel counterparts with a great margin thinking price/performance ratio. 64 series also gives you the flexibility to use both 32 and 64 bits (64 bits windows series for AMD CPUs are in beta - current benchmarkings show over 300% performance boost just moving from 32 bits to 64 bits on same AMD64 CPU).
PS: No I'm not an amployee of AMD nor have a relation with AMD:)
