Pentium or Risc processors for an Oracle Database?

We are going to buy a server for an Oracle 9i Database on Unix with ~700
concurrent users for an OLTP system. Some guys of my team recommand to get
an Alpha server (4 or 6 processors on a cluster) because of better I/O
access. Is it really a better solution than an Intel based? I'm not
convinced by this propostion because of much higher costs with alpha
systems.



What do you think above.
