Before i begin my Question, i'm going to give out my System Specs -

ASUS M2A-VM Socket AM2/AM2+ (according to Asus Website)
XFX GEFORCE 7600 GT 256mb
8GB DDR2 DUAL CHANNEL 800MHZ RAM
AMD ATHLON 62 X2 6400 3.2GHZ
1TB HDD
600W P.S.

Okay, Now for the interesting part

According to the Motherboard Description in the Asus website i can fit a Quad Core processor on my Motherboard and it will run Perfectly fine.

here's my First Question - Is this True?

My Second question is -

i would like to purchase a quad core processor and a new video card to be able to play the latest games i have without having to bring the settings down.

Also, i need it to be under 400 dollars

Any suggestions?

Thanks all for your help
 
i also saw that i would be capped out a 1000mhz due to the motherboard being so old. should i just stick to something along those speeds?

And would i be experiencing any sort of bottleneck?

thanks for your help Hellokitty
