New socket 939 CPUs?

[Brawler]

I still have a X2 3800+, its been working overtime since the day I bought it over 2 years ago. Great Processor.

For some reason it boots Vista faster than my Core2 Duo desktop and notebook which are higher spec'd?

Isn't that Opteron a socket 940

I think the later models were socket 940 - this one is confirmed as socket 939...

You can have my board and 2 GiBs of RAM for R5000

... oh what the heck, I'll throw in a 3500+ as well ...

That will probably be a good price if the rand drops much more against the dollar.

I do have a CPU (3500+), but I want something faster.

I did the exact same thing, got an X2 4200+ second hand for around R500 a few months ago.

There isn't anything wrong with 2nd hand CPU's, they don't exactly break too easily. The CapeAds is getting scarce with these things, you'll most likely find a chip in gumtree, prophecy, myadsl or systemshock classifieds.

Wa ha ha ha. You need to divide your quote by 5.
