The math is very simple, the better is the one with greater performance/price ratio.

I don't quite understand how the x2 4200+ is twice as fast as the Opteron 170 running multi thread apps. Plz explain. |

It depends on what you want to achieve in performance as to whether the Opty 165 or 170 or even the 175 are concerned...

Additional bandwidth almost does not improve the performance on the K8, when the real-time latency remains same. S754 vs s939, s939 vs sAM2 are just proving that. The best case when the memory bandwidth is doubled shows 5% performance increase, so more expencive memory with better bandwidth is not reasonable choice for performanse.
