Is an SMP rig really all that beneficial to a moderate multitasker for use as a daily rig? I know enough about SMP that I know that multithreaded apps will be the only things that actually utilize both CPU's. But I also know having duals allow you to do a number of things at once while bogging down the computer less then in a single CPU rig. I am a moderate to heavy multitasker, and am wondering if I could really benefit from dual CPU's. I don't want to spend all the money on it only to realize no differance.
SO is it worth it? What do you all do with your dually rig that you notice a differance between it and a single CPU rig?
