And your average Pc user is gonna do that? I don't think so.

But them opterons are multiplier unlocked if you have a compatible board with multiplier settings it does make for easier overclocking. I remember when they were released I was itching but by the time I upgraded my 3800 x2 I was going lga775 and overclocking the 805

I had 4 in total and everyone hit 3GHZ.My 146 managed 3.2ghz orthos stable for 12 hours.Took it out of the mobo to have a cleanup and dropped it on the floor bending pins in every direction,was gutted.

Re: What's The fastest AMD Socket 939 Dual Core Processor?
One of the lads on OcUK swears by his 805! Pretty sure he had it at well over 4ghz as well.I think the record on extreme is over 5ghz for a 805.

Re: What's The fastest AMD Socket 939 Dual Core Processor?
I've just fired up Battlefield 2 for the first time in well over a year since buying an Xbox 360. Although i do love playing games on the Xbox 360 i always liked the true FPS game better on the PC due to the faster mouse/keyboard control system and to top it off i'm getting a ping of 15 in UK servers! (thanks VM)
So i've decided later this summer when i've got some money i'll upgrade my system to atleast a Intel Conroe E6600 and a DX10 card just so i can whoop Zingles **** on a good game.
[edit]
I guess i'll need Vista for DX10?

Re: What's The fastest AMD Socket 939 Dual Core Processor?
Give the RIP City server a try.I stopped playing there a few weeks back due to 200+ ping  not bad for a UK server.Im hoping VM have this sorted now though as my mate across the road plays there on a 1-2mb adsl line and pings 30 at most!
