Well I built a computer a while back and today I downloaded PC Wizard 2006, it says my CPU is Opteron. Is that a good thing? Becuase I thought my CPU was just AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3500+. On the box it said nothing about Opteron???

AMD AM2 3500+ w/HT
MSI K9NU Neo
PNY OPTIMA 2GB (4X512MB) DDR2
Western Digital 250GB hard drive
XFX Geforce 6800GS XXX Edition PCI-E

PS2 w/Swap Magic 3.6

Opteron? Sounds interesting if you asked for an Athlon64. Opterons are generally better than Athlon64s, they're the server grade equivalent. Go into my computer's properties (from the right click menu) and go to hardware and device manager. Under processors it should say what you have. If it says Athlon64 3500+ then that's what you have and there's a bug in PC Wizard. If it does say opteron, tell me the number after it, I'm intrigued!
