wow answers are all over the place BUT appreciated. Still a little confused. Any case I can get the (all socket 939) FX-55, X2 3800, and Opteron 165 Denmark 1.8GHz for around the same price (the 3200 I have). The motherboard is a MSI Neo4 platinum, so I'd have to go with a compatible chip...
I'm thinking about upgrading my HTPC CPU from a 3200 to a FX-55. My M/B is a MSI Neo4 Platinum Socket 939. The main thing I'm concerned about is heat due to the low air flow case I have.
Does anyone know which runs hotter at stock speed?
Thanks in advance,

Things to consider when looking at HTPC case specs:
- Height of the case -how tall will the vid card or cpu heatsinkbe??? Will usually determine this
- Length - How deep is the entertainment shelf/rack? No back - no problem
- Width - hmm no wider than typical stereo equipment if you...
