"VPS Enterprise" Compared to "Core2Duo E4600 - Promotional"

[pvtnc23]

Hello, I am currently using a VPS Enterprise for my site which receives over 800,000 - 900,000 visits per day.

I am thinking about upgrading to the Core2Duo E4600 - Promotional.

I was thinking, since the VPS are hosted on a 8core processor while the Core2Duo is only a dual core, would the fully dedicated server still be more powerful than the VPS?

If so, approximately how much more powerful would it be?

I am asking because the VPS is starting to become sluggish at peak hours when I am having 130 - 200 consecutive online users. I was wondering if upgrading to this dual core server would help boost the performance and fix the slow downs and sluggish operations at peak hours.

The only difference between Virtual private server and a dedicated server hosting is that with dedicated you are the only person with files on the server. VPS is created on a virtual environment where everyone gets root access inside a virtual machine
, but there are multiple people with these VMs on a single given physical server. And of the advantage of Dedicated server is that you are the only one using the servers processor/bandwidth, so if your website is at a point where its slowing down due to resource starvation, then moving to dedicated would be beneficial.

ON VPS resources such as CPU/RAM and Disk space is restricted and you can't go beyond the limit unless and until permitted.
