Which 2010 Mac Pro would be faster (mostly Photoshop but also video editing and music recording software)?:
4-core 2.8GHz (single CPU)
8-core 2.4GHz (dual CPU)
I'm also wondering if turning off cores is the same as having less physical cores? I've read that Photoshop's ultimate setup is with 6 cores, which leaves the question if the CPU speed difference above in that case makes much of a difference making the 4-core the better choice?
I assume the amount of memory also makes a difference.
