I have a GIGABYTE GA-M68MT-S2P Motherboard.
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3922#sp
I currently have an Athlon II X4 640 CPU and I'd like to upgrade to a Phenom II X4 965.
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=5692033&CatId=4431
My Motherboard says that the Hyper Transport Bus is 2000 MT/s, and the Phenom is 4000 MT/s bus speed.
Would I be better off just buying a new Motherboard or no?
I only ask this because I'd like to upgrade my PC for a little better gaming and what I've got now is definitely lacking.
I am also Upgrading to a XFX Double D Radeon HD 6870 sometime soon (As well as a new PSU).
