AMD Athlon 64 3000+ / 512KB Cache / 1600MHz FSB / Socket 754 / Processor


doesn't that make it WITHOUT the 64bit code?

no sure what you mean, what would not make it 64 bit? there are S754 that do 64 bit, the sempron doent do 64 bit
 
As long as it's not a Sempron it will be a 64bit CPU. That's a Hella sweet deal assuming that you ACTUALLY get the rebate. If it's a Tiger Direct rebate I wouldn't hold my breath though. :p

I meant would it run the XP64 or the SERVER64 operating systems?

Thanx.
 
I maybe wrong, but as long as the CPU supports 64 bit code, it would run both. Maybe your confused because of the difference b/w the opteron and the Athlon 64. The Opteron is the server directed CPU and the Athlon 64 is the desktop directed one. Not sure of the actual differences though. Memory controller?

That chip is 2.0Ghz not 1.8Ghz, but that's just nitpicking ;). Good deal.
 
There is an Artical about this Processor in CPU Magazine and they used it to overclock upto 2.5GHZ and at that speed it clearly beats the 4000+ by a big margin in Sandra 2005 benchmark.
