2 amd 64 x2 4400 or 1 amd 64 x2 4800

I'm upgrading my current system and I'm running xp on sonar 4 producer.I want to know if i'd be better off getting two dual core 4400s or 1 dual core 4800 the price is the same for both purchases but I don't know sonar's cpu utilization the board for two would be a tyan dual processor for about 5 bills but the board for the single would be asus for about 174 I'll run dual raids 0 sata 2 hard drives but I need some expert advice from people that know.I record in 24/96 and have good vintage outboard gear so quality is a premium. I'm using Drum Kit From Hell Superior and custom for my drums and it can really tax my current cpu which is an amd 2800 semperon with 1.5g of ram
Thanks :)

    you cant use AMD X2 in a dual cpu motherboard.

    you have to use Dual Core Opterons.

    a single AMD X2 should be more than enough for you
