Ok I have found these two Processors.They both have OC potential but what is the difference between them and which one would be the better buy? Thank You AMD Athlon 64 3700+ 1GHz HT Socket 939 Processor - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103539 AMD Opteron 146 1GHz HT Socket 939 Processor - Retail http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103598
i would chose the AMD Athlon 64 3700+ i got the 3200+ version there pretty good theres not much competion between tose 2 cause they both got 1MB caches im geting the 3800+x2 in like 6 months if they still got them and prices go down
Thanks,also what is the difference between the WD Raptor and regular Sata 2.0 3gig/s.Is it still that the Raptor goes at 10,000RPM and has 16MB Cache?I can find an 200GB 16MB Cache Sata 2.0 7200RPM drive for less than a 80GB Raptor. Which one would be the better buy? Thanks Again.
The raptor is a better buy as the seek time is around 4ms as has 10,000 rpm, where as all the other drives are around 7.5ms so quite a difference. Alsoi would go for the 64 3700+ the opteron 146 is mainly for business use as made for servers.
