I've just ordered a 165 Opteron from ncix...it's a special order so it won't be here for 2-3 weeks but I will let you know how it turns out when I get it

You just have to push it beyond the 3700+ clock speed which is 2.2GHzOK so ive decided to get the Opteron 146. Im planning to OC it but how far approximately do i have to get it to outperform the 3700+ i was gonna get?
Yea well, the only reason im looking into this is because i just realized i owe alot of money to somebody and the 146 is right up my ally in price.I'd say past 2.6ghz, which this seems to be able to do. I would go with the 148 personally, so you have a more even match to the 3700+'s starting point. Plus it's nearly the same price. Although it is a few bucks cheaper on Monarch:
