CPU
???? I don't know! I can't decide...
Was thinking either athlon x2 3800 or athlon64 4000+...But was reading alot about the opty's which i guess can be oc'd faster then the 64's. And I do plan on OC'ing. So, i'll consider these opty's :
Opteron 146/148 series or the dual core Opteron 165/170
What processor would you all choose? Keep in mind this is a gaming rig mostly and will be overclocked. Any input will be appreciated thanks!
