oofki Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Not to be mean but um 1. Why an Opteron you should get a reg. 64bit althlon.2. DFI makes TERRIBLE motherboards3. NEC cant make a cd-rw to save their lives4. and the wireless card is a lik cheapbut its yours not mine :-D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEC cant make a cd-rw to save their lives4. and the wireless card is a lik cheapbut its yours not mine :-D1. Opterons are essentially Athlon 64's that have met the rigorous requirement of being a server processor. They are known to be great overclockers and much more tolerant at heavy processing loads 24/7. Otherwise, there is no difference in terms of architecture and design between it and the regular Athlon 64.2. I will somwhat agree there. I had a KT600-AL motherboard back in the day when I had an Athlon XP system and it was a piece of...well, you get the point. That particular Ultra-D model is "supposedly" the best for overclocking, but the board is extremely picky. The board seems to be fond of certain settings, and there is no tolerance in changes. You'll have to play a long game of trial and error in order to really bring the most out of that board.3. That one's decent, don't know what you're talking about.4. How do you know? Have you ever tried it or had any experience with it? I've never heard of it, but you shouldn't be putting down something that you've never tried. I don't listen to what others say, I like to try things out for myself and then I'll decide if it's good or bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BombaTwist Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 which is better? the athlon FX, athlon opteron, or X2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamiQuazi Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Depends on what you want to do... The FX is basically a Athlon 64 but the multipliers are unlocked, the Opteron is a Server Edition of the Athlon 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripken204 Posted November 20, 2005 Author Share Posted November 20, 2005 (edited) @lostincyberspace-i know the cpu is wrong, newegg lied to me saying that they would have the 165 back on friday but they didnt, i was just putting the 170 there to look at but now i might have to get it just b/c of the dual core@BombaTwist-for what? the fx is the best overclocker, the opteron is the next best. the fx60 will be dual core and will be the best cpu of all time! and btw, me and my dad are splitting the price 50/50.@oofki-where do u get this stuff? i would like some facts. the only thing i dont know about is the wireless which is prolly going to my dads comp and ill prolly be getting the modem/router for a direct connect@Thai3g_Eclipse-thx for saying that stuff and defending me Edited November 20, 2005 by ripken204 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
