This is a small development cluster that we use. It has 1 master and 4 slaves. All are core2duo 2.4Ghz with 4G ram and 2x500G sata hard drives on intel boards running a stripped down version of fedora core 6. Our production system consists of 1U supermicro servers with the same specs except running a single 750G sata. > And I was wondering if anyone has tested a cluster using servers with > Intel's Quad Core Xeon X3210 processors?

A monster box in a very small case. I don't have any benchmarks as of yet but I will keep the list informed of our progress.
