Im just happy the M2 is coming out because itll make the opterons for the s939 become cheaper and if im correct in assuming itll make ddr cheaper too so i can get a really nice OC rig for cheap
Actually, before the socket 939 opterons came out (which are basicly athlon 64's with a different name), the 940 opterons were and still are very different than the athlon 64/939 opterons. They require slower, more expensive ECC ram, they don't support all the special things like 3dnow, sse, etc... They simply are not good for gamers/enthusiasts. They are only good for dedicated servers. This is how socket f will be.BennyV04988 said:Flanker wtf are talking about? MY POINT was the fact that the opteron cpus turned out to be very good with overclocking. I don't give a flying **** that socket F is a different socket etc etc. It will have a socket F motherboard with a socket F cpu. That's how these things work okay. THEN you OC the CPU (again, socket F cpu in a socket F board) I'm saying server setups can be very very very fast

I don't think Socket F is going to be using buffered memory as DDR2 doesn't like errorchecking for some reason and last I checked AMD was looking for other alternatives...obviously the pin difference indicates some sort of distinction between the two but I think they will still all revolve around the same K8 architectureThey require slower, more expensive ECC ram, they don't support all the special things like 3dnow, sse, etc... They simply are not good for gamers/enthusiasts. They are only good for dedicated servers. This is how socket f will be.
