AMD Processor Question - AMD2 FX62 vs Opteron 1220

[LouPoir]

Can someone help me in telling me the difference between and Opteron 1220 and a FX62.

I checked at Newegg and the only difference I can see is the HT - its 1000 on the Opteron and HT 2000 on the FX62.

I ended up picking up the opteron 1220 2.8 and I got it running at 3.1 - nice.

The only difference between those two processors is the FX has an unlocked multiplier. They both have a 1,000 Mhz HyperTransport Bus. Of course, it's DDR, so you could say that either of them have a 2,000 Mhz effective HT bus speed.
