AMD Brisbane or Windor core?

That GSkill is able to go alot higher.

Im using a 5600+ Windsor, 3.5Ghz @ 1.525V on stock Opteron heatpipe cooler, and 2GB OCZ1066SLI ram running HTT 250Mhz (500Mhz ram) 1:1 5.0,5,5,5,12 2T @ 2.225V
 
HI,


Members, well either the motherboard or the Cpu likes the 9.5 cpu ratio. It is stable at 3.0 but I think I need better cooloing than stock it was a litle flaky closing programs but prime85 stable 9 hours.

Well here is mine at 2.8 @ 1.36v running the DFI ultraII-M2 board until I get better cooling.

Will be getting one of these two processors. What i am looking for is the abilty to to get to 2.2 ghz and above with little to no hassle on retail cooling for the near future.

Right now I have the 3800 windsor in mind (why no 4200's)

Also, any chance that the prices for the other f3 cores will come down anytime soon?

Any advice would be of great help
Thanks

The ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe is a very stable motherboard.
My X2 4200+ can run stable with orthos and superpi @ 2.75ghz cooled by an Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro heatsink, but to be safe, I lowered my cpu down to 2.60ghz
You'll be very happy with the motherboard and cpu :)
