okay im getting a new mobo n processor and would like an opinion on what to get.

1st option is a 754 board with a 3400 Athlon 64 2.4GHz

nd is a 939 Board with an Opteron 2.0GHz

Both boards have pci express graphics and with the processor come to about the same price

which option is better? im personally thinking its got to be the opteron but would like some other opinions on this...

Studio Comp: AMD Athlon XP 3200+ OC ~ 2.35GHz runs at 40 celcius idle and 48 under stress (aerocool GT1000 really works!), Asrock K7VT4A , 1024MB Dual Channel DDR 400, MSI Nvidia FX5200 128MB OC ~ 600MHz mem 350MHz core,80GB SATA + 200GB SATA + 120GB IDE, 7.1 Channel Soundblaster Audigy 2 Platinum EX sound and midi interface. 19" Sony SDM-HS95 TFT monitor - sweeet
Comp2: AMD Sempron 2400+ OC ~ 2.0GHz (Stable), Asrock K7S41GX, 512MB DDR 333, Onboard Graphics, 40GB Maxtor IDE

The 754 is no longer being made. Your best bet is to go with the 939.

Dont let the door hit you on the way out, beacause I dont want ass prints on my new door!

I'd go with the 939. That Opteron should be pretty sweet too.
