  Please have a look at : http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/C/6/FC6006B5-866E-42C1-88F8-9AC4B8BC610D/WS%20Brand%20Pages%20-%20Editions%20Comparison%20Guide.pdf

  The way i read it, the limit is on sockets not cores, so 4 quad core = 4 sockets and you shd be alright, but i'm not good at licensing so i'll watch this space for more.

  thx

  here 4 cpu = 4 physical sockets on the motherboard. in your case, 4 different sockets (each with quad core pro~) is supported. to know more about cpu cores please refer a previous thread
