$90CA - AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 2.0GHz / 1MB Cache / Toledo / Socket 939
I own a 3500+ (2.2Ghz) single core
What are your thoughts?

Go for it-- great price-- $90CA (about $81 US) is about $50 below what they're going for.

Personnally, I'm shopping for either a fx-60 or opteron 185, the two most powerful cpu's for the 939 socket. The thing is...those things still cost a whole lot of money dude ! Anyway, if someone could give me any input about what are the differences between the two chips and/or which one would be better for 24/7 folding and gaming, I'd really appreciate it. I know the multiplier is unlocked on the fx-60, but is there anything else ?
Anyway, good choice there godless !

Well- I always use Newegg myself-- usually only 1 day delivery from where I am, but the sales tax sucks.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList....me=Athlon+64+X2
only $81 for the 3800+---- $122 for the 4200+--- and no tax for you!!
