Well, it will probably run on one of them, but 2.2.5 has no SMP support. You'll have to wait until 3.0 (later this year) for that. If you're adventurous and prepared to pick up the pieces of your machine from time to time, you can get the pre-release version of 3.0 now, but don't expect it to be as reliable.
