A friend has an old rig, and is looking to upgrade on a budget. He needs a new processor, but can't afford swapping out the motherboard (unless someone has a very cheap alternative).
Currently, he has an OEM Foxconn RS780. https://panam.gateway.com/s/MOTHERBD/Shared/4006272R/4006272Rsp2.shtml
I need to know what kind of processor would work with that motherboard. He right now has an AMD 9150e 1.8GHz quad core, which obviously isn't much. Right now I'm looking at the Phenom X4 9850. I wanted to be sure that would work though, or if anyone has a better suggestion, please do let me know. Thanks for any help!
PS: He currently has a 500W PSU and isn't pulling nearly that much, so that isn't a concern.
