Dual CPU Vs Single CPU in game servers

When it comes to hosting game servers, particularly CS, what is the difference between say using a single XP 2600+ and dual MPs 2400+?

Whats the max no. of 16 player servers you can host on both of them?


Btw between using FreeBSD and redhat linux to host game servers, is there a difference in performance?
