I'm looking to upgrade motherboard/cpu from AMD Athlon 2 640 quad core sitting on N-Alvorix-RS880-UATX. Looking for some guidance, I know most of the time people have the preferences on Intel/Amd, however I don't really care. I only care that I get great performance while playing World of Warcraft which a new xpac will be out next month. I have a budget of $200 any help will be much appreciated

You can get the mobo and the CPU and cooler. Then if you overclock, it's a pretty impressive performer.

After reading the article I'm going with it. It will do what I need it to do at a very good price, under $200 with the CPU cooler. Thank you very much for your time
