    I would use Intel (Phenom Quad one). AMD is better for gaming as I've understood it.

    The one with more ram, since the processors are the same.

    Ye, the one with more RAM is obviously better. However, if you won't make use of more than 4 GB, I don't see any reason to use that one.

    Well, i mistake with the servers, im choosing between this:

    * Phenom Quad 955 3.2Ghz
    * 4096 MB DDR3 RAM
    * 500 GB 7.200 RPM
    * 2000 GB Traffic p/m

    * Intel C2Q Q9550 2.83Ghz
    * 4096 MB DDR2 RAM
    * 500 GB 7.200 RPM
    * 2000 GB Traffic p/m

    * Intel C2D E8400 3.00Ghz
    * 8192 MB DDR2 RAM
    * 500 GB 7.200 RPM
    * 2000 GB Traffic p/m


    * AMD64 X2 7750+ 2.7Ghz
    * 8192 MB DDR2 RAM
    * 1000 GB 7.200 RPM
    * 2000 GB Traffic p/m

    But the servers who have a quadcore and 8gm ram are a little more expensive and i dont know if i can pay, so thats why i want know what is more important, the ram or a better processor

    It depends what you're going to use it for. As I said, generally, it's rare that you even use more than 3 GB RAM.
    I have like 2k uniques per day and I use not more than 350 MB RAM at the same time.
