[dba-Tech] Server CPU

I'm looking at buying a new server. (Dell has their low end units at a good
price right now.) It would seem for $50 extra that the Xeon would be a good
deal:

IntelR Core 2 DuoRE4500, 2.2GHz, 2MB Cache, 800MHz FSB
Dual Core IntelR XeonR 3040, 2MB Cache, 1.86GHz, 1066MHz FSB

64 bit ops and a larger FSB. But I wondered if it has any issues with 32 bit
ops?

Seems to be hard to find info on the Xeon.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
