My setup:
AMD Athlon 64 3700+
Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe
2x 7800GTX
2Gig valuselect
Now I wanted to upgrade one component before I switch over to a new socket mobo in a year or so, and I could see a lot of CPUs were being discontinued for socket 939. I managed to get an Athlon 64 X2 4200+ and installed it. The difference isn't very noticeable. It was the fastest I found on Newegg though. Anyone have any imput? Is it worth $170?
BTW I also overclocked it from 2.2ghz to 2.5ghz.
