Phenom Black Edition

Ive been looking for a processor upgrade (currently have Athlon X2 4200+ 2.2ghz).

Ill probably buy the Phenom but just wondering if anyone already has it and can recommend it more

This is the link btw http://www.ebuyer.com/product/155714

I know it wont run to full spec because ive got the AM2 socket, but hopefully that can be a future upgrade, don't really have the money for both right now and christmas is around the corner

Send a message via ICQ to Hellfighter
you think you can upgrade the MOB Bois to support it?
AMD may have a bois update for the mother broad for it.

check it out and see! if you have not already done so it could not hurt any to look

I got the Phenom II X4 945 3.0Ghz and it's a great CPU for pretty cheap. The black edition is 3.2GHz has I believe has an unlocked multiplier. I'm not much of an overclocker so I opted for the cheaper 3.0ghz lower-watt version.
