I recently went for the 3400+ S754 deal on Newegg, but.... I don't think I was thinking straight.


I seriously have a lot of crap to get rid of. And I could have done something like this.

I have 4 socket 754 boards, one of which I'm using right now that has PCI-Express. They are the Biostar NF32A57, MSI K8N Neo Platinum, DFI Lanparty UT3 250, and Chaintech VNF3-250. I also have a very nice Abit AN8 SLI 939 board that I was hoping I'd use much longer, but recently sold an Opty to pay off some debts. Now, I was thinking about this:

Sell all of my 754 boards except for the MSI AGP board, because I have a 6800 vanilla for it. It also has my lidless 3000+ Clawhammer on it. And I was thinking of selling that CPU also. And put my 3400+ on my MSI. Use the money from selling the 754 boards, and buy a 3800+ X2 or a 4200 for my Abit AN8 that I currently have sitting on the shelf. It's such a nice board. Please, tell me your opinion. I long for it. What should I do? I'm so lost.
 
Hah.. no thanks. Not into all that Intel hype. I would like to do this soon... I am sure that a dual core X2 would benefit me so much and make my x1800xt happier. I already have such a nice 939 board. I really want to use it again.
 
In that case, I can highly recommend the x2 4200. It has been very good to me.
 
Now the parts still are here. The 4 freaking 754 boards I need to get rid of. All of my boards are fully functional and nothing is broken. What would be the fastest way to sell them?
 
I'm not qualified to give advice, I have a DFI LANPARTY UT nF3 250Gb in my rig along with a 3700+ Clawhammer. It replaced the same Chaintech board you have and I still have the Chaintech; it started being a bitch about running 512X2 of RAM. It's my "backup." My other backup is a 754 3000+

I have another DFI LANPARTY UT nF3 250Gb on the way and with it a Clawhammer 3400+ and just bought a Socket 478 ASUS P4P800SE as well.

How can we end the addiction!?!?!?!

Lol, yeah. I know. They're nice little machines and still pack good horsepower for single cores. But now I really need a X2 3800+. I am starting to do a lot of multitasking work. Could anyone take my golden DFI motherboard off my hands and help me out a bit!?! :O :eek:
