I'm not going for MHz so much as I'm looking for upgradability.
THat's why I might set back a bit, maybe until wonter. I want to see how the ClawHamer works out, because if it's good, I'll buy a Mobo that will accept it's future improvements. The Hamer edition wil have much larger L2 cache and an on chip memory controller for DDR whic will give less lag and better use of bandwith. Also the mobo that will come to them seem to support as a general the ATA 133/RAID, USB 2.0 and AGP 8X. I'll look more into it and update if I'm sticking to the curent Athlons or not.
