Could anyone recommend a processor between $150 to $200 range upgrade . I am a gamer and i have a gateway DX4822-01. im upgrading my PSU as well, so that shouldn't be an issue.

Thats a socket 775 system... nothing you'll find is new and it's all pretty out of date. Save about $600 and build a new rig. You might find a nice Q9650 or Q9550 on Craigslist or Ebay but honestly putting money into a dead platform is just a waste.

Yeah best you can do with that motherboard is a Core2 Quad, used on ebay and craigslist like nosupport4u stated. Running around 70-100$ looks like, but really, that is such an old system (2008 is when that chipset was released) you'd be better off saving up for something new.
