Looking at a new motherboards and processors.
Current processor: AMD athlon II x4 645 @ 3.1GHz
I have been looking at new processors for a while and found that the best i can get for and upgrade currently is Six core AMD at 3.5GHz or anything along those lines. It would have to be a 95 Watt or less model like the one in the link or else it wont be compatible with my motherboard
Motherboard Specs
I could go with AMD but I would rather look into options of a new motherboard compatible with intel series processors i5 or i7(if the price is right) as they are far superior to AMD for gaming purposes mainly and as Hek informed me AMD as a company is not doing very well anymore
Trying to keep in mind i want to only spend $300-400
