   I wonder how S939 Opteron 165-180 would have managed, as they're said to be excellent for overclocking.

   Look like this review?[url]http://www.legionhardware.com/document.php?id=46
   [/url]The Pentium D805 is the bang-for-buck winner. It would be funny to see a 165 vs 920 overclocking review. Intel the price leader?

   They should have maxed it out on both. But still I like the looks on the pd.

   I'm sorry for that, definitely a typo. The max we could get from the 4400+ was indeed 2.7GHz.

   Ouch! I thought Intel wasn't going to lead us into the duel-core but it seems AMD has just too high prices. Hmmmm... AMD better figure out what is making such a high price difference.

The opteron 170 is identical but teh 10x multipler makes it easier for your motherboard to clock the FSB to reach those speeds.Opterons 1XXX are cheaper than the X2 series.I'm happy to see a true enthusiast article back on TS
