Hi,

I've been out of circulation for a while on all this PC upgrading/overclocking malarkey for a little while. My question is, should I upgrade my opty 146 @ 2700 for an x2? I notice the x2 are fairly reasonnably priced, I was thinking of a x2 3800 or x2 4200.

What do you folks reckon? Is it worth upgrading (sticking with 939 for the mo')? Or should I consider going to the dark side and trying to understand all the hype round the devil's products (intel duo stuff)? Of course then I have to buy a new mobo, memory, etc...

Any advise gratefully received.
 
No jitters really, just that x2 prices seem to be ok right now and I've saved some pennies. I used to be a bit of an upgrade addict, but I just want something that will keep my PC working acceptably for the next year or so without wasting my money.
