AMD dropped prices on a bunch of chips today... This is the e-mail:

So, I see that the X2 3800+ is now less than an Opteron 165. $299 for the X2 3800+ sounds pretty good to me, as the Opteron is unchanged at about $330...

And that is retail, with the 3 year warranty (and heatsink)!

Huh? Any ideas on overclocking? Other chips to consider?
