Can this mobo run this CPU?

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131249&Tpk=M2N%20Mx Is the Motherboard

And I was wondering if it can run the quad core AMD cores and that and/or the AMD Athlon 64 X2 7750 2.7GHz Black edition thing

^No. That board doesn't even support the Phenoms. Chances are it won't support the X2 7xxx CPUs.

Whats a good Quad Core Intel Motherboard then? That is cheap but is good

If you're target is to reduce costs I'd suggest maybe an Intel P35 board, with an Intel Quad Core (like Q6600 for instance).

Examples:
Intel P35 $105

Retail Boxed: Q6600 $189

Here's a Combo Deal. Q6600 & P45 (Crossfire capable)Mobo $299.98

Keep in mind, you'll need DDR2 memory for these boards. The P45 motherboard is generally better than the P35.

If you're looking for a cheaper upgrade, and want to go the Phenom route here's another option.

nVidia 750a mobo & Phenom 9500 $199
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4352231&Sku=MBM-750A-9500

Not the same performance as the Q6600/P45 setup, but $100 less. Still need DDR2 memory.

The phenom 9500 is a chip that you do not want . Nor any Phenom with the number ending with 00 . They have a fault that limits performance
