Opteron (939) Upgrade Thoughts
Thought I'd chuck this query out to the forum.
With Vista up and coming (and having tested it since Beta 2 and looking to move) I think it's about time for me to switch to something Dual Core, but not wanting to change out my entire mobo, CPU and RAM I was thinking of a (relatively) cheap and cheerful upgrade to a Dual Core Opteron.
I've been running an overclocked Opteron 148 for about.. 8 months or so now and it's been perfectly happy and rock solid stable at 3GHz all the time, so as I noticed that Scan have started stocking the Opteron 165-180's for pretty cheap I thought it may be a good time to take the plunge.
I ideally want to change to something that'll get me a lil bit more performance due to the Dual Core but I don't want to lose out over my current chip as it's still got a fair bit of grunt in it.
Worth it, not worth it?
Cheers :)
