UPGRADE CPU ON ASUS A8N-SLI PREMIUM

the best processors for the socket 939 are:
opteron-180 @ 2.4GHz dual core
opetern-185 @ 2.6GHz dual core
fx-60 @ 2.6GHz dual core

there is no intel chip that can go into that board, it is an AMD board

though you would be better if you upgraded to the new socket AM3 and bought new memory and cpu along with it

btw, writing in all caps implies shouting

by the way check out my specs

Thanks, I think I will wait then just purchase a high end desktop. I am in the process of buy a top notch ALIENWARE laptop! This will help with my video editing projects.
