Hi there,
Im looking to upgrade my computer (Not the rig in my signature):
Athlon 64 3500
Asus A8N-SLI Premium.
+ other stuff.
But im looking at building a new computer with Dual Core. Here's the question...
Am I better with
A) X2 4800 and a nice motherboard,
B) Opteron 175 Dual Core and nice new motherboard.
C) Either of these two and my old motherboard
D) Or "Stuff dual core, Let's go Dual Socket 940 with some Opterons!"
I know the old opteron s940 can go dual socket, and they have introduced s939 Opteron Dual core, but there doesn't seem to be dual socket 939 anywhere? Am I wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am looking for a kick-ass machine to help reduce the dreaded render times. Incidentally, I want to stick with AMD, Im loyal to them.
Cheers all,
Atocp
