Looking for new motherboard/processor upgrade!
Last response: in Motherboards
So my computer is a fair bit old, the mobo/processor atleast. It seems fairly difficult to find a good upgradeable processor that is compatible with my current mobo, so I'm considering just buying a new mobo/processor. Any suggestions? I'm looking to spend no more than 200 or so, any possible mobo/processor bundle packages for a good deal around this spending limit?
My current processor is a AMD Athlon Dual Core Processor 4050e, so nearly anything would be an upgrade I'm assuming as it's pretty old.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks a bunch! I'll look into the quad core/mobo =]. Also, my primarily use is for some gaming, nothing too hard core, my current setup runs everything decent enough, just looking to upgrade a bit for better performance. I'm sure this would serve me just fine right? Especially in comparison to my current mobo/processor.
What video card are you using for gaming?

I would just go ahead and get 4gb of DDR3 and sell your DDR2. DDR2 is actually more expensive than DDR3 now. I've seen 4gb DDR3 for as low as $30 after rebate in the last few days.
