what is your budget and other system specs?

Hector1490 · Aug 14, 2013

$200
and what kind of 'other specs'?

chairsgotoschool · Aug 14, 2013

with your mobo you can get the phenom II x4 965be or the phenom II x6 1055t or with 200 bucks get a new mobo and cpu like a fx 6300 or an i3. and other specs as in the gpu, ram, os also why do you want a new cpu, the reason you want to upgrade might not be fixed with a new cpu.

Here is the CPU support list: http://support.asus.com/cpusupport/list.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&m=m3n78-vm

So first it's better to work w/ Phenom II X4 965: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-hdz965fbgmbox

or for budget Athlon II X4 645 or Phenom II X4 945 (945 is better but 645 is more power saving): http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-adx645wfgmbox / 945: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/amd-cpu-hdx945wfgmbox
