With 939 X2 chips coming end of life do you think I should pickup a X2 939 chip? I'm using a 3700+ 2.2ghz single core A64 in the HTPC. Only the more demanding 1080p movies are close to 100% usage with this CPU. The rest of the time cpu usage is around 30-60%, including scaling.

I can get AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 for £75. I have a 4400X2 already in the HTPC.
