Not that long ago I breathed new life into my desktop from a Brisbane x2 to a Phenom II x4 Black now running at 3.8. Well that and another 8 gigs matching ddr2. The link shows my thread on it including two screens of Windows experience before & after in case anyone is curious. The Chip still cuts it in today's world even on a ddr2 board. Radeon 5670 1gig card is - ok.
Edit to add; Got my chip of Amazon, around 100$. Pricey for yesterdays tech - yeah..
