And a FX6200 or FX1820 from Scan of course

The PSU will be a Thermaltake TR2 550w (W0101) from my old system..

What are you doing with your system?? The motherboard won't be that great for overclocking,so I assume you are running the CPUs at stock clockspeeds??

Here is a comparison of the FX4170 and the Phenom II X4 980BE:

The Phenom II X4 965BE should be around 10% slower than the Phenom II X4 980BE.
