I3 2100 vs x4 955 BE Virtualization

[raju1706]

Hi All,

I am planning to build a new system for home labs and will be using it primarily for testing and learning purposes. I am tight on budget and looking at i3 or x4.

I would be running 4-5 virtual servers simultaneously on hyper-v.

Which would be better as I know i3 2100 does not support VT-d.

Thank You

If it depends on cores, then i'd go with the II x4, but... if it doesn't then I don't really know.
