I have a K8N-SLI motherboard with 3 gigs of ram and an Athlon 3500+ that I'm looking to upgrade the processor on. Would it be worth it to upgrade the processor to Opteron 185 (Overclocking debatable). I know there are a lot of people who will say to do a complete mbd upgrade irregardless, but I've already put a lot of money into this this board and would rather not have to completely replace it completely, and have to get a new board/processor/ram.
As for what the use of the system is used for, primarily it's used for gaming, but increasingly, I've been also using it for music production.
