Harro, I'm using 939! I'm wanting to upgrade to a faster 939, though. How's an Opteron 180 sound?

Hello!

The Opteron 180 is certainly faster than your 3500+, and has the additional advantage of being a dual-core CPU. Moreover, if you're so inclined you can overclock the Opty 180 for even more additional speed.

Yah, just ordered it. I fully intend on OCing it.

I bought this as well.

Xyro, good choice on the power supply. I have that same one and I have not had any problems with it. It has a single 12volt rail rated at 41amps I think.

Good luck and let us know how the Opteron 180 goes

Haha, I'm terribly excited about getting this together! This mobo, gfx card, and RAM are all from a friend who had it in his computer (a Retired Director on here!), 'cept he was running an Opteron 148 @ 2.8Ghz stable. I decided to improve upon that a little bit, and then clock up the speeds on everything. We'll see how quick NewEgg gets it to me. Rush processing FTW!

Thanks for the welcome. I'll likely be entering the contest upon the purchase of some Zipties.
