| 1118045 | 2010-07-12 02:40:00 | I would like to upgrade my current CPU which is a AMD3200+ AM2 Socket with a dualcore CPU. My motherboard is a Asus M2A-VM. |

| 1118048 | 2010-07-12 02:44:00 | What speed do you want to go to?? And what BIOS is on it now? Is this mobo with or without HDMI onboard?? If it doesnt have HDMI onboard. I would check here (support.asus.com). See if the CPU youre going to install is here, and what BIOS update you need. Before you update it |

| 1118050 | 2010-07-12 02:52:00 | I assume you are in NZ? Have a look here (www.computerlounge.co.nz). You could easily go for a quad core for that kind of coin. Make sure you put the latest BIOS on the board before installing the new CPU. |

| 1118053 | 2010-07-12 02:55:00 | I'd buy from ComputerLounge or Ascent. have a look at the link I posted earlier, find a CPU that fits your needs then double check it against the CPU support list in the other link I posted. As far as i can tell the CPU support is identical between the HDMI and non HDMI boards. |
