What kind of CPU can I buy

[Copilot]

Here is my current CPU

AMD Opteron 144 Processor S939 Venus 1.8GHZ 1MB L2 Cache 90NM 64BIT

And my motherboard

ASUS A8N-E Motherboard ATX S939 NFORCE4 Ultra DDR PCI-E16 PCI-E4 2PCI-E1 3PCI SATA RAID
http://www.ncix.com/products/i...US&sku=14268&vpn=A8N-E

What kind of CPU can I buy, I am looking to buy one for $300 but I don't know what type I need.

And can I use intel and AMd or will this motherboard only take AMD

Sorry I don't know much about hardware.

You can buy an AMD Skt 939 single or dual-core processor. This is the fastest that's available.

Damn they don't have that on ncix and newegg doesn't ship to canada.

Do you have any idea whether Overclockers.uk ships to Canada? They have an X2 3800 at what seems to be a pretty good price.

how bout the opteron 180 here

 

[hans007]

you can buy up to the fx60. i'd say the best choice would be something like an x2 3800 or 4200 bang for hte buck wise...

try to the fs/ft forum a lotof them will ship to canada (as do i, but i do not have any 939 chips)
