I have a 939 motherboard and 450 Powersupply and I am wondering which CPU I should get I was thinking like a AMD 64 3800+ or should I get a Opteron which the powersupply can handle will use it mostly for computer games and getting on the internet

Opterons often cost more than their equivalent X2's. I'd say just get whatever the cheapest X2 there is available for 939, they're running out fast.

Then again, I'd get some punctuation first.

the Opteron 165 is currently the cheapest dual core processor from AMD and offers better performance compared with the X2 3800+. Is that a brand name psu? If not, it might not run your rig depending on what the other components are...
