Hi! I'm trying to figure out which platform to use on my new server. Server's primary and almost only role is mysql, huge databases (can grow up to terabyte or so), so I'm considering enough big ammount of RAM which probably allso will grow over 4GB, so at this point I think x86 32bit becomes problematic becuase of PAE, so I will loose some ammount of RAM for remapping and also I will lose in performance. Is this true this far? So I'm considering to use AMD 64bit, so no problem with RAM? Which system would be faster: dual processor AMD 64bit with RAM>4GB or dual Intel Xeon 32bit with RAM>4GB?
If AMD 64 bit wins, which motherboard would be more reliable and faster to use (2CPUs, DDR2 memory up to 16GB or so)?
