I bougth recently a server with 2 x X5550, they are quad (4 cores each) total 8 cores
If I check the task manager it shows in the CPU usage history 16 diagrams, Should't it be 8 cause I have 2 processors with quad?
or the diagrams maybee shows the Threads of the CPU?

The CPUs have support for HyperThreading, so each core x2 logical CPUs.
You can always lookup the chip specs on Intel's site
