Then since I plan to save up anyways, not using two processors would this be a better choice:

AMD has just announced that its Bulldozer-based <http://www.extremetech.com/computing/93046-the-dao-of-dozer-understanding-amds-next-gen-cpu> server-oriented Interlagos CPU has now begun shipping to OEMs and retailers, with availability pegged for the fourth quarter — October, hopefully. Interlagos, or the Opteron 6200 as it is now officially known, is the world’s first 16-core x86 processor, and is pin-compatible with Socket G34 (Magny-Cours/Opteron 6100) motherboards.

** With all 16 cores on one processor there should be no botleneck between them.. RIGHT!

Following my own testings, if you choose a dual processor, it will become the bottleneck, far before you start to need 32GB of RAM.
So, IMHO, yes, it would be a waste of cash.

you need to be more specific about your use case, ie, how many users, prims, scripts etc.. you could run 56 regions on a machine with 8gb ram if your not expecting many visitors, without more information about your goals it is impossible to answer this question.

    I have been pulling my hair out trying to decide how much I need
    to save for the perfect machine to run opensim with 56 regions
    on. In my search I thought I wanted a am3+ on a FX990 chip-set
    board with 32gb of DDR3 ram. Btw, I do have Windows 7 64bit Home
    premium and will have to upgrade to the next level that can
    utilize up to 192gb of ram.

    Since I can't find a am3+ compatible board that has room for more
    then 32gb, would opensim use the resources on a dual processor
    board with 192gb of memory if I could get it? Or would it be a
    complete waste of cash?
