Hi. I'm a first time poster of these forums and a computer newbie.
I try to understand the computer components and what they do etc.
I might be planning on upgrading my computer in a few months or so.
My question is: will I need to upgrade my current motherboard in order to use
it for the more advanced processors such as the Phenom II series or the i7?

That's my Motherboard (pictures included).
Also, I have trouble understanding the part/feature of the motherboard.
If someone can clarify these terms for me and what they do, I'll be very grateful.
