Athlon x2 4400 toledo or Opteron 175

Can anyone tell me the difference of these two processors. I have an 939 mother board and would like to get one of these two processors. It looks to me that they are the same processors.
Thanks

Not knowing anything else about your system and what you plan to do with it, I would go with the Opteron 175.

For all intents and purposes, they are the same processor. The Opteron is most likely built with higher quality silicone/higher testing standards for utmost reliability/stability(for servers). If the Opteron is a similar price...get it, but if it's a lot more...the 4400+ would be the better choice..unless you are looking for maximum overclocking. You can probably squeeze an extra ~200MHz out of the Opteron with proper cooling. GL

Thanks for the help. I just purchased the Opteron...It was $1.00 more.

BTW, any idea about the X2 4200+ Manchester?! Can I safely bring it to 2.4GHz os stock cooler and voltage (sorry but I can't change these options on my system)?

175 all the way for the Cache and stability. I have a 175 and love it.

Same cache.

Same cache.

Was confusing it with the 4200. Thanks for the correction.

Good choice. The opties clock better because of their higher standards for testing and silicon.

I would go with the opty higher quality standard. Either one will be fine but the Opteron will generally be a better overclocker. I don't know what the 4400+ stock heatsink looks like but if it's anything like the regular athlon 64 heatsink then the Opteron has a better heatsink as well.
