¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I've read up on several good threads here about upgrading the CPU on the 1,1 and 2,1 cMP. Mine is a 2,1 which I will use as a media server by moving an iTunes library to it to be accessed over wifi from 2-4 clients (iPhones, MacBooks and Apple TV 3).

The computer is currently in standard 2x2,66GHz dual core config and I am wondering if that will suffice to serve music and in particular video to 2-4 clients simultaneously - or should I look to upgrade to a quad core CPU?

Thanks in advance for any real-world experiences of this
Philip
