Well, the time has come... My motherboard is finally dying on me, and I need to get a new one. However, I don't want to update to old technology so I'll need advice on what CPU to get and then possibly what motherboard to get.
I have a AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE with an ASROCK mobo. The motherboard's onboard audio has died and I have several USB ports that stopped working a couple months ago. Also, I'm thinking my videocard issues are a direct result thanks to this motherboard.
Can anyone recommend me a new CPU so then I can start looking for a new motherboard?
Thanks!
EDIT: Total cost I'm willing to spend on everything would be roughly 200-300$. Also, I'd love for it to last me 2+ years as this 955 has.
