The order of priorites or importance for AMD CPUs are: CPU Speed, L1 and then L2 Cache.
So, the 3800 at $112.00 Newegg compare to $102 for the 3700 would actually be a much better buy if this is your price range.
The 4000 is $135.00 and would be worth the few extra buck IMO
The slower 3800X2 would be better for the future but it may be obsolete anyway when that future arrives.
Now the $295.00 4800X2 would be a better bet, cheap froma few months ago
We just gamble on these projections.
