I don't know if it's worth it as the 5000+ is going to be $282 after tomorrow. But if you really need the 2x1MB, i suppose it's ok.
 
damn really?? $282? That's fantastic. time for the upgrade before Crysis arrives
 
Where is the 4800 being priced for $320 at? That's a pretty good deal for us socket 939 users.
 
I'd still say the Opty 165 is a better choice. It's $10 cheaper, better silicon, and pretty certain to OC past the 4800.
 
You're giving up 600mhz though. I'd say the 4800+ is pretty much as good as any Opty 165 silicon floating out there lately. All of the X2's have been clocking nicely.
 
just called Monarch.

4800+'s are on backorder.. backorder until End of Life they told me.
So monarch will not be getting any old/new batches of 4800+s in?
Weaksauce.

I hate my honda.
 
I wanted a 4800. But I was afraid I'd order one, be put on a back order list for 2 months, then told there are no more CPUs to fill the remaining orders... So I went with the next best thing, 4600.

Yes, unless you really want a 2x1mb cache chip.
