Hi. I'm about to buy a HP Workstation or a HP PC (in Malaysia)

Between Opteron 1214 (dual-core) and Phenom 9550 X4,
Which CPU is better for softwares that need intensive floating-point calculations? (3ds Max, MATLAB, etc), over long hours.
Opteron 1214 is second-gen Opteron CPU which is somehow like Athlon X2 Brisbane/Windsor. Although it is quite old, Opty has longer lifespan and can withstand higher heat than desktop CPUs because of its higher grade silicon
Phenom 9550 meanwhile has quad-core, which certainly beats any dual-core processor in softwares supporting multi-threading. Phenom however isn't designed to run over long period like Opty.
