Hmm, I may check these out! Thankyou so much btw haha, needed it in time for christmas as Ive been wanting to play planetside 2 and arma iii for ages, thanks!
Hold on a minute what revision is your motherboard
3.1 revision only supports
up to bulldozer i would recomend checking revision in bios
if this version get phenom 965 as bulldozer crap
4.0
revision only supports bulldozer which wasnt very good
5.0
Final version of motherboard finally supports viresha
fx 6300
revision numbers can be found on motherboard as well as seen in this picture top left of the board

bios will need to be updated as well
also if planning to play planet side 2
you could go with a 6 core phenom if your board cant handle fx viresha fx 6300
also you will need
new power supply 600w
660 ti or 7870
depends on your budget feel free to pm my box and i could help find parts cheaply usa or uk were you live ?
