You guys think it's worth upgrading my opteron 146 (at 2.4Ghz) to a opteron 175/180?
I've checked Toms CPu database thing, and comparing a 4000+ san diego (2.4Ghz) to a FX-60, yields only a +15%-30% increase in fps....
I use the comp mostly for internet and games (NWN, NWN2, Oblivion, CIV4...).
BTW: My complete system is in my sig.
...seems kind of pointless...? I'm thinking it's better if i wait till next fall/winter with current rig and upgrade then to Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD (if they got something good by then) and also change the video card then too... And just upgrade my monitor now to the Dell 2407...???
BTW: I'd only oc the cpu to 240fsb...(2.6Ghz for Opteron 180; 2.4Ghz for 175)
