On the Intel side I thought you needed Xeon CPUs for a multi-CPU system.

You do. Some desktop CPUs will work in server motheboards, but only with a single CPU.

At mainstream price points, AMD 2P and 4P server parts do tend to be cheaper for the same performance, and competitive on power consumption.
