It is my understanding that most consumer grade motherboards do NOT support cool n quiet with dual core opterons (or that the dual core opterons don't have it). Either way they are not an option for the use I have in mind if they won't go low power without me having to buy a special low power SKU. I already have a high end 939 motherboard so I'm not in the market for a complete new setup.

I don't have the URLs handy but I had read several issues with dual core opterons on consumer grade motherboards that are not an issue if you are overclocking but are an issue if you plan to go for default or lower voltage operation.
