Hi all, I'm back with another hardware related question, and I'm hoping someone could shed some light on this for me. I have found a new socket 940 server motherboard with support for 2 dual core opterons running simultaneously as well as support for up to 32gb of ram and pci-e x16. I was basically wondering what the performance would be like if i purchased this board and 2 dual core opterons running at 2.2 ghz. Would it be worth the price? ($46.99 total!!! ) and one final question would it be faster than my AMD Athlon 64 5200+ x2 (Brisbane model)?
The motherboard is an ASUS k8n-dre
The 2 processors are Dual Core Opteron 275's
all the rest of my system specs would remain the same.
(8gb's of ddr pc3200, Ati Radeon hd 4870, 320gb SATA 5200 rpm hard drive, 650 wtt psu)
