Is 8 Core way faster than 4 Core???

I am considering taking the plunge and getting a magma chassis-Intel Mac. I am mainly doing it to use my new logic 9 with my HD system. I want to invest as little as possible. I am looking at getting a 4 Core instead of the expensive 8 Core, but I dont want to waste my money on a system that will be dated in a years time. I have read that the 8 Core doesnt run PT much faster that a 4. Any suggestions?
Thanks
