I basically have a computer built. It's been this way for a while, as I have been saving money for other things. I see that 939 is getting phased out now and I heard that the 4800+. the CPU I was planning on buying, is discontinued. I'm just wondering what the best 939 processor I can get right now is, preferably under 400 bucks. I'm gonna just be gaming and maybe some mild overclocking. Thanks a lot. I don't want to buy a whole new mobo and RAM right now because I just don't feel like blowing the money. Eventually I'll get a new mobo with a 4x4 or something but I just want to run this for now.

Yeah, I definitely want a dual core. Are those Opterons any good? I remember reading some things about guys getting crazy results out of them with OCing, but I've been out of the computer scene for a few months.

Opterons are mainly for server use... i dont really really recommend it, just make sure your motherboard supports that kind of CPU..

I have a 4400+ in my computer now with 1mb L2 cache work great. It overclock to 2716 MHz with a voltage of 1.45 on the stock heatsink. Temp while gaming get up to 50c,most of the time the temps are around 40c. It cost 216.00 OEM or 249.00 Retail at Newegg.com.

 I am going to water cool it this winter to see how high I can get it overclocked. I also have a 3700+  [single core] in my other computer running windows vista RC1 with no problems.
AMD may not be the fastest cpu right now,but they still work great.
