2 VPS, E3-1230V2 two core 3.3G vs E5-2620 four core X 2.0G, which one is better? Other stuff are same, RAM, DISK I/O, mainly run php and mysql.

    Probably more power in the E5 option.

    but seems E3 might be a smaller mother node, so...

    @asolar - Actually the E3 will be faster, even if you get fewer cores, especially if the virtualization is run on KVM. We have E3 and E5 servers, and the raw clock speed of the E3 is amazing. @Nick_A has lots of E3 servers with RAID10 SSDs arrays, so his servers are flying.

    E3 will be faster but you do have to keep density in mind.

    TBH... I am starting to hate that 2Ghz E5s...
    Too slow for single threaded stuff.

    just move from E5 4 core VPS to another E3 two core VPS, find E3 2 core VPS is way more faster than E5 four core VPS. by the way, I only running a small wordpress site, not sure for other software.

    If you mean the 2620, it'll push up to 2.5 when you hit the turbo button.
