Socket 939 help

4000 is the fastest single core, anything above is duo. Might also check into the server chips as well. Its going to cost you vs the perf available today

FX57 2.8GHz is considered fastest single core made. I use my FX55 at 2.8Ghz. a lot. I also have the AMD 64 4000 San Diego up and running.

I have one. A new listing for $300.

Id sell ya my old 185 opty, but Im fixing on giving that to someone

OP, socket 939 was discontinued long ago. Finding any new chips would be a venture. Used maybe.

AMD kept socket 754 which uses DDR around for cheap busines solutions. Then ended socket 939 which was also DDR when Intel introduced socket 775 with DDR2. AMD then released AM2 which supports DDR2. 754 is still around.

Socket 939 NF4 introduced SLI. I stayed up all night watching for newegg to release the A8N32-SLI Deluxe 16 x 16 SLI. To expensive for me upon release. Ha, while I have you here, I still have my socket 754 NF 4 SLI running. I have worked on that thing for maybe three months now trying to solve the freezing/crashing issue it developed over time. . Last week I installed a new SATA cable to the HD and moved the unit to a different MB header. Do you realize what a genius I am.

Edit for writer's embellishments

well, i have a s939 a8n-sli premium and a 4000+, the only thing that bothers me is that i only have 1GB of memory and DDR is way to expensive to upgrade, luckily it's just my file server though

While we're on the subject, the AMD 4800X2 2.4Ghz. socket 939 was the very first dual core desktop processor released. The 3800X2 939 came later and was much cheaper unlike the FX60 which also came later too, but was more expensive. The 4800X2 is still very good at multitasking like you mentioned. So AMD was first to release a DC processor. Also a CPU to run a dual GPU chipset (Nvidia NF4) and first to implement an onboard memory controller. All this proved to be the path cutting edge technology has taken. That's why I have so many boss Intel systems today. Thank god Intel fired back with Pentium D , a lock on Crossfire in it's infancy and a triple channel onboard memory channel which memory distributors think very highly of . Oh, and AMD was the first of the two to buy it's own GPU production deal. I'm pointing out the obvious obviously.
