Exactly what I was lookin for dude, thanks.  Any opinions on Opteron SMP
over Xeon SMP?

We're running 11 servers (not all COD but similar games) on a 3.06 GHz
Dual Xeon, 2GB mem, GigE connect to an OC48 backbone. The server is at
80% memory, 25% Peak CPU, 15% load on an average day. You can see it at
http://server.teamjudge.us/mrtg/index.html. Few complaints of LAG, but
there are some. It would take at least 3 of these to build your 32
server stable.
