    Just a tip I found when I researched my quad AMD....
    Stay away from the 9X00 series chips and go with the 9X50 series....

    They solved some issue with that change...

    Also, the 9850 black edition, which I settled on, has an unlocked multiplier and can ge overclocked pretty easy, if you care....

    I'm got it up to 3.0GHZ from 2.5 on the stock cooler...
