Opteron's are the server versions of the Athlon 64's, they are socket 954. you can get mobo's with dual socket 954's for the Athlon 64 FX or the opteron and they support dual channel DDRRAM unlike the socket 754 proc's, although the Athlon 64 3400+ performs very well compared to the FX despite not supporting dual channel
