I'm about to go the 64bit route and I was wondering if anyone has had any experience overclocking either of these cpus? Right now I'm leaning toward the 3000+ for it's 10x multiplier. I am interested in your opinions.
There is a revision of the 3000+ with the 1mb cache.
Looking at the reviews and benchmarks the cache seems to make little difference so I wouldnt be that eager to spend the extra cash for it. But, if you see one of the faster processors on offer then go for it. Otherwise, the 3000+ gets my vote. Have one sitting in my main rig.

Yeah I'm most likely going to get the 3000+ because of it's 10x multiplier. I'm afraid if I get the 2800+ the 9x multiplier might limit my oc'ing potential. I'll be watercooling the system so heat shouldn't be a problem.
Do you know what revision you got? I hear the CG revision is a great OC'er. Well I broke down and got the 3000+. I'll let you guys know how it performs.

Hey bud do you have any links with reviews on the mobile64? I have a mobilexp and love it wouldn't mind going the same route with a 64 later on.
