AMD opetron vs Athlon64 vs ????

[Dan Irwin]

what's the difference between the athlon64 and the opetron?

is it worth upgrading from a 1.7 ghz with a 400mhz bus

i was thinking of getting the "Tyan Thunder K8W" (pci-x is a must) is
this good?

how out of date is that mobo?

and lastly can i use it leaving one of the dual sockets empty?


thank you for you help,

dan

p.s.

i wasn't exactly sure which board to post this to, can somebody point
me to a better one? if they feel i'm in the wrong place
