Ok let me simplify this maybe I guess so I can understand this better!
Is a current Dual Socket F board with say 2 ~ 2220's going to be faster than a Dual Barcelona on the same board due to the memory latency with Barcelona due to Motherboard limitations?

If I elect to set up a Dual Socket F Super Micro Work station/ Server now instead of waiting for the new boards in half a year or longer will the 2 dual cores be better for my needs in over all speed currently?
