Amd venice 4000 64 bit

Is this a bad ass chip for my new cpu?

My local pc shop reckons, he persuaded me form the san diego 3700 to this one

just would like some oppinons, form you highly knowledgable selves
 
hm i dono if there are +4000 venices, i know theres a san diego 4000 but for that price i recommend a dual core proc x2 +3800 or an opteron 165 (opterons are suposedly ment for servers but many say its the same thing so i dono)
 
Dude the 4000 venice doesn't exist you saw he didn't say 3500+ Venice and yea the san diego does exist
 
I wasn trying to prove a point, i didnt know really, its only cos cpu bloke said it i knew!!

So you wouldnt know much about it then.

the model it BNBOX, san diego. they probably just copied over the specs and don't know any better to change it?
 
dunno, whatever it is, that salesman that told you venice is better doesn't have a clue, i wouldn't go to him.
 
dont go 4000+, i did ;/. its always after you buy something, you find out what you really wanted. should have went 3800+ x2
 
Dont buy it. Go with an Opteron 165 from Monarch or mWave. It's roughly as much as the 4000+, but it's dual-core and overclocks quite well.

shocked at you of all people saying this, and me not noticing this before (less the latter though, cause i miss things all the time! :D:D)
x40-x54 = single core
x65-x80 = dual core

a big tip-off is the odd number, 5, the single cores increment 2 at a time, staying even

hmm it was a long day and the end of my work day... my bad....

I was readin 145...

But x80 is even :D

The idiot just wants your cash...and he's prolly been spending too much time watching the penguins on the telly.
 
Cheers for your comments guys,

Now i dont know what to do. was originally going to get the 3700, but like i said he said go with the 4000, cos im getting 7800 gtx as well, he reckoned it will work really good together.

Oh by the way that loink is not where im buying it from, it was the first one i saw so copied and pasted it
 
WOW the mis information in this thread is almost unbarable and definetly to much to even go through. trying to stay on topic... Please dont go to a place that is trying to sell you a 4000+ venice. Run for the hills. Not that I like THG whatsoever but its difinetly a useful pic

you can clearly see there is no 4000+ venice. So I dont even know if there is a point to arguing for or against the original two options.... thinking about it i dont think there is. over and out
