Cameljockey 3 Posted April 8, 2009 Go to you mobo manufacturer and see what processors your mobo will support. A processor upgrade might be all you need. If you're maxed out on the processor, then look for a mobo. If you are and are looking at upgrading your mobo and CPU, may I suggest Intel? CJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

messaround 0 Posted April 8, 2009 (edited) I have similar system with cpu a little faster then yours Amd X2 6000 gtx 260 4gigs Ram sliders at - 3,5,3,3,4,1...you probably gonna be ok with 3,3,3,3,3,1...don't rush with cpu upgrade, see how it plays with 4600 first if you decide to upgrade mobo and cpu, consider switching to Intel (better for OFF) and yes, you'll have to reinstall everything Edited April 8, 2009 by messaround Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
