Ok i have this PC, http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01657222&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=3911768
WITH this CPU, AMD phenom II x4 955be




From what i been reading this board only supports a 95w CPU and the CPU is a 125w. Is it bad for the board? It seems to run fine, but the thing is am i getting the full power of the CPU? (I did not put this CPU in.) plus i'm running a 300 watt PSU http://www.replacepowersupply.com/300w-bestec-atx0300d5wc-reva.html
WILL it be fine if I put a GFX card in such as a HD 7750? Because the CPU is a 125w.
What kind of CPU can i put in the board that is GOOD? OR what kind of board is good for this CPU AMD phenom II x4 955be? I would like to keep the ram if possible if not its ok. budget is no more than $100 THANKS!

Ok if i go with the second board what kind of ram would be good for the cpu?
DDR3 1800*/1600*/1333/1066/800
Note: 1800/1600MHz memory speed is supported depend on the AM3/AM3+ CPU you adopt. For detail CPU specification, please refer AMD official website.
i don't get what it is talking about.
Plus would i have to get new heatsink? the mounts look big.
