A while back i was reminded that the opteron 148 and FX 51 were identical chips. Newegg has drop the price of the 148 to $404 (OEM) while the FX 51 currently goes for $689. Anyone know motherboard compatibility with FX boards and Opteron chips? If it is compatible i know that AMD is working on or about to release the 150 opteron, which would be similar to the FX 53. Correct me if im wrong but if it works, you can get a CPU, motherboard, and reg DDR for less then the price of an Intel 3.2EE CPU.
