    Opteron 144 (x9 multi) or Opteron 146 (x10 multi)

    WATCH THIS SPACE! (I hope it does OC better coz Ive decided on the Opty 146 now! lol) Behold the components to my new system! Should be ready in a few weeks (I hope) - The Opteron is going to take time to get :( Im thinking if I should start a thread that states the reason for me...

    Opteron 144 or 146? Down to cost?

    Firsly thanks for the advice! It is appreciated! However, I did a lot of research on the CPU Coolers and found a link here regarding the XP-120: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?p=679438 It seems from the pictures that all Memory slots can be used and there is good...

    Opteron 144 or 146? Down to cost?

    Well the point of this thread was whether the extra £50 is justified :D The problem is, there havent been parallel alongside benchmarks of the 144 Vs 146. This would be very very very interesting to see. I think Eclipse has gathered this (after overclocking with the 144) and wants to also find...

    Opteron 144 or 146? Down to cost?

    Hi all, I am looking at the Socket 939 Opteron 144 (£120) and Opteron 146 (£170). Can you guys tell me which one would be the better to go for? I know the 144 has a x9 multi and the 146 has a x10 multi. That is about it though really! Thanks for the help, RickyS

    Opteron 144 (x9 multi) or Opteron 146 (x10 multi)

    The problem is I dont know what I can or cant crank up at this point! lol. I have most of the bits for the new rig at the moment, but no case or processor! So im not going to be able to analyse what the HTT is like and its limits :( I do know that I have to wait 3 weeks for the 146 and only 2...

    What is a great CPU Cooler? All suggestions Welcome! :)

    Well said lithium, my views exactly! Although, I have a question for korruption, why would you choose the XP-120 over the Si-120?

    Opteron 144 (x9 multi) or Opteron 146 (x10 multi)

    yea, that's what Eclipse was saying. The Ram should be fine with dividers. However, I am also running the Crucial Ballistix RAM - made for overclocking! What do you guys think, 146 or 144?

    Opteron 144 (x9 multi) or Opteron 146 (x10 multi)

    Hi all, Some of you will know that I have been researching and looking into the spec of a new rig for myself! Viewed from my signature, I dont think its that bad! But, I have been moaning about the processor since yesterday.. im back at the crossroads and would love to know your opinions...

    Opteron S939 1xx series on ASUS A8N-SLi Premium

    Yea, i gathered the 10x multi vs the 9x multi.. but im thinkin.. will it make that much difference? Both chips have the same core. I am sure that they will both overclock to the same extent, however I understand it that the 10x multi puts less stress on components. From what Eclipse has...

    Opteron S939 1xx series on ASUS A8N-SLi Premium

    Thanks eclipse! Your articles helped a lot :D So, summarising, it doesnt matter which opteron I go for (ie I may aswell go for the 144?) This would lead me onto the next question (and hopefully last before I make the order :) , why is there a lot of commotion about the 146 Opterons??

    Opteron S939 1xx series on ASUS A8N-SLi Premium

    Hey Eclipse :D I dont really know too much about what im talking about, im still choosing the right components to build my new pc (which is the reason why I started this thread! lol). I was settled on the Opteron 144 all the way (with x9 multiplier) but i've been reading how this will...

    Opteron S939 1xx series on ASUS A8N-SLi Premium

    Im debating whether to go for the Opty 148 running a 12X multiplier. My main reason for this is because im running Crucial Ballistix 1GB X2 RAM... Any views on this? WIll the 144 or 146 or 148 be better for me! ??
