i have a 3700+ and it is a very good single core cpu. might not have the overclocking cababilites of a single core opteron but overclocks very nicely. the amd dual cores are also nice considering the x2's took a huge price drop but nothing overclocks like a dual core opteron.

my 3700+ overclocks very nicely i got it running at 2.6ghz right now with the stock.

Now the AMD people are getting into this.
Thanks for the tips guys.  I'm looking at some pretty interesting posts.

not a problem, glad we could help but if i were u i would consider the x2 3800 or if u want to pay more then i would get the opteron 165 with good cooling
o and do not compare ghz for ghz when comparing amd to intel. look at the benchies

Look to the Conroe, .

Intel finally got away from just GHz.

i dont think he is gonna go conroe becuase he has really expensive ddr ram and of course conroe is not compatible with ddr


edit: I think ddr makes more sense than conroe, yeah? lol

good conroe systems are gonna be pricy.....either way - new quad core cpus will be out later this year .... who knows what is that going to bring
