Well you might now be able to upgrade, your ability of this depends on your RAM, power supply, video card...etc
So to start off, give me full specs of all components in your computer, your OS. Also tell me what do you do with your computer and what applications you run, aswell as expectations for those applications being run, BE VERY SPECIFIC.

The only difference between the X4 955 and X4 965 are 200MHz, but for the price of the X4 965 isn't a good deal.
