Well, I've just seen some amazing scores form Opteron setups...and I'nm surprised not many people are goingthis route. They are a tad pricey, but not way over the top.

"On the XS forums Mickey Mouse go his opteron 146 to 3,050 Mhz
10x305 with two gigs of ballistix at 3-3-3-5 Spi 32M stable
@ 1.484V" - From a friend

Anyone run an Opteron or plan to? They are sold out as of now, but soon to be in again.
 
The opteron 152 is cheaper than the fx-55, but the use of regestered RAM which makes it more expensive in the end. If they ran on nf4 platforms and used ragular RAM I would definetly buy them. I wanna see the new 2.8 gigahertz egypt model running in 8 way form... that would be awesome...
 
I didn't think all Opteron's required registeed RAM, do they? I know hes using ballistix with his Opteron 144. It's actually a S939 and NOT a s940 (CPUZ goof there)

They are only ~$215 for the processor, and still 1MB L2 cache and 64-bit.

They do. All S940 chips do ... although i have heard something here and there about getting away without it...
