Where can i still buy S939 dual core Opterons/A64s?. Hi guys, I've recently upgraded from a s939 vennie to a i7 nehalem (can't they use better names...., and i love the "new" QPI lol, its just like OCing the vinnie :D ) and the old system is being refurbished...

the point, is it worth it, from a performance perspective, me mostly gaming, to upgrade to a S939 3200+/S939 Mobo at this point when one year down the road I will be upgrading to Conroe? What are the big advantages S939 has over S754?. I plan to purchase a...

as well since it uses DDR (not 2 or 3), 2GB(2x1GB) can easily cost $50-60 its actually cheaper to get a mATX board, a new processor, and new memory than it is to upgrade to a good S939 athlon X2 and go to 4GB of DDR ram Yeah, and ebay is full of greedy...

thing, and it's gonna cost ya. I just bought the s939 3200+ so I might be somewhat biased on this point, but I liked the upgradability of the s939 over the slight performance edge of the s754, although depending on how good you are at upgrading your system...

PCI-E with the same socket leaves you at a dead end. 2) Upgrading to an s939 motherboard will need a new CPU+graphics card. Also s939 is coming to the end of it's life with AM2 around the corner. So save your money and put up with a minor upgrade, i.e....

do with it. I am upgrading because the s939 system is on its last legs the usb ports and sata drives keep getting lost. I would like at least a boost in performance but with a view to future upgrades. these are my options: AMD Athlon X2 7850 2.8GHz...

a 3700+, if I remember correctly, for s754. Of course like I said, you may want a new motherboard to by the time its time to upgrade your s939 setup. My Desktop: ...

your general gaming for a bit until you can save up for a rebuild. Don't want you to be too discouraged about the possibilities of an upgrade, but at $300 CAD I think it would be tough. Another option would be to upgrade to a s939 AMD chip and mobo, so you...
