    The 3700+ is 2400mhz with 1mb cache.
    so the 4000+ is nothing new, just a 3700 plus with s939

    The PR seems Overrated

    The PR of S754 vs S939 CPUs ARE out of whack!. Dual Channel only gives you at most an additional 5% but AMD pumps up the PR 300pts from single to dual channel. And then charges an arm and a leg for it.

    Newegg Retail Prices....
    3200+ S754 2.2ghz 512K ($212) - 3500+ S939 2.2ghz 512K ($379)
    3400+ S754 2.4ghz 512K ($289) - 3800+ S939 2.4ghz 512K ($630)
    3700+ S754 2.4ghz 1 MB ($497) - 4000+ S939 2.4ghz 1 MB ($850 FX-53)

    GOD bless 'Em - now that they can outperform Intel across the board, they should try to make as much dough as they can
