I built my rig last summer, since the 939's were going down, i picked up a 3800 (now @ 2.5). Right now I can run games really well. Sure, it would be great to have the most amazing processor right now, but since I can still run current games well, i see no reason to upgrade.
as soon as the next gen games are playable with no eye candy (i.e. whenever crysis is released), that's when ill upgrade. but since all the games i play now work, i see no reason to upgrade.
I wish i had the latest technology, but its impossible when something new is always around the corner.
I just did exactly what you're contemplating - had a 3800 and just got an Opteron 180. So far I notice next to no difference at all, although I haven't really started overclocking it yet. I'll let you know if it was worth it after I figure out how to OC like a champ.
