ah yes, it's a single core Opteron with 1 MB cache..really nice OC with that chip, though I've heard Opteron has rather limited OC overhead when compared to the likes of the AMD64 equivalent (mainly referring to the comparison between both dual-core processors). Get yourself a nice high-end watercooling system like the Exos2 by Koolance, and you'll be set. Very nice clock, btw what kind of CPU cooling are you using?

ohh ok, well then, you do have water, excellent. how much heat can it dissipate, in Watts? The Exos2, which is definitely a monster, can dissipate 750W of heat, and you can add multiple components with no flow problems (trust me, I know this from a very reliable source ). Nice OC though. And actually audiophile, I've heard it go the other way, that it has more limited OC capability than the X2 chips, but it a lot more stable and reliable stock and OC'd......also heard in the higher models that one of the cores get a little flaky (or it can). But, I now want the Opteron 170 dual-core, just to try it, because it's pretty much a cheap Toledo, with its sexy 1 MB X 2 cache, lol.

That operon prettymuch is an FX (1mb L2 cache)!! It would kick the crap out of an FX-55. His processor is technically an FX-60 (depending on your definition of what the FX-60 is supposed to be)...audiophile wrote:i heard that it's an incredible overclocker under water and mediocre on air. however, i still wanna see how it matches up to an fx55.
Simply amazing. Never thought I Would see so many AMD processors hitting 3Ghz as I have with these Opterons. It makes me want one sooooo bad! I've really got my eye on those Denmarks (dual core s939 Opterons).
I am priming it now...it ran for over 4 hours before my daughter accdently shut it all down... so I am starting all over.
They do run hotter than thei A64 counterparts. 55*c at load.
I would have gotten one of these in dual core as well, but I already have a X2 3800+ that does 2.8 at 1.45 vcore, which is good enough for me...
