Which would be better?

Which would better to have a A64 3000 with 939 pin or a A64 3400 754 pin? Would I be able to overclock the A64 3000 to the A64 3400 or is it better just to get the A64 3400?

I would take the 939 3000+ as most will OC to 2.4-6 ghz on air. And is cheaper than the 3400+

also if you want to upgrade your cpu down the road you'll already have the mobo

Definately the 939 and a 3000+, then 8-12 months from now when the FX-55 is $200-$300 you can just slap one in your existing rig

Thank you guys. I had the same idea about it but I wasn't sure if I should or not.

I'd say A64 3200+ 939 since that costs the same as A64 3400+ 754. Not sure why you are choosing between $150 3000+ model when 3200+ is $195 and 3400+ is around $210. Unless you considered the price difference for the motherboards as well.....

I'd get 939 since you can overclock it easily to 2.4ghz matching 3400+ and you have a longer upgrade path. I'd say a longer upgrade path is worth losing 200+ speed rating (especially given the overclocking record of winchesters)
