I'm staying with my Opty 165, because gaming really doesn't need a C2D yet.
Yeah but it's so much nicer. i went from a Fx60 to an [email protected] the fx was 3.0 and it totally took the bottleneck out of my system and it runs about 20c cooler but I will admit my cooling is better with this rig than with the AMD. You are right though you can still game with the opty for sure.
