hey bro,
if u are an avid OverClocker then go for the opteron 165, opterons stay comparatively much cooler than X2 procees under similar OC'ed conditions. if u don't wanna OC then go for X2 3800+.

PS: OverClocking AT OWNER'S RISK!!!! :wink:

cha :lol:

After the Atlons prices have been dropped... u can get a X2 4200+ guess... that should be better than the 2

out of the 2... if they were for the same price i would get Opteron 165
