Why choose when you can get both?

[Tomatosaurus[RE]

So I bought the 144. CAB2E boxed. And then I thought "hmm the optis gonna vanish? *I have no clue if this is true*Better a buy a 165 too now that I have the chance" .



In the long term, I would propably have to quit this behavior.

So, now I have a boxed 144 and a boxed 165 and no money for a motherboard until xmas! But thats OK, waiting for mor 1695 boards to show up anyway.

I think one of them has to go. Feels like the 144 doesnt it?

Any word on wich one too keep regardless of motivation is welcome!

Oh, I forgot to mention, that the same place also have the Opteron 150 in stock. If I dont keep my habit in place this could turn out to be a threesome. I could always skip buying food next month.

i would keep the 165. i just moved to dual-core and the difference is amazing

 

[EvilCloudStrife]

way to go! you really beat the system

 

[Saud]

shoot , buy it, and live off raymon noodles for a month

 

[IamME]

ya i have not one but two frige boxes you can make into a double wide.

Opteron 150? Would that be like a 2.6ghz single core? No need for that since you can clock the 144 to that speed easily.

 

[Tomatosaurus[RE]

Nah, its 2.4 ghz. I almost bought that at first, but the guy at the counter said it would be better to buy the 144 and clock it. So I said "really, can you do that??".

I wanted an 148 or 146, but those are nowhere to be found locally.

lol id sell off the 144.. even if it does have a good stepping. ive heard raving reviews on dual core, once you try dc, youll never go back
