I am considering either an opteron 144 or a 3700+ san diego i have seen the opteron considerably lower priced than the 3700+ (opteron roughly £90) i've heard great things about the overclocking success with the opteron and teamed with a dfi lanparty i think could have a good overclock. Which would you guys suggest considering i am trying to keep costs to a minimum?

Opteron is the better overclocker but that's really about it. Both processors run very similair to each other in preformance. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ 2GB Dual Channel DDR 3200 Nvidia 7800GS SATA II 2x 200gig 7200rpm 16mb cache RAID-0 Gigabyte Nforce 4 SLI
