Sold my old AMD 4200+ CPU on Ebay today for $60 with free USPS. Say shipping is $5, my cost to swap my 4200 that ran 2.604 Ghz for an Opterton 165 (paid $70 with free shipping) with a much biggeer cache and 2.808 Ghz speed was only $15. Because I am happy with my current stable overclock I am not going to see how much more I can get outr of it now, but when I build a new system I'll play with it again and see what the max I can get out of it is with more voltage, reduced timing, etc. All in all the swap has been well worth it.
