HP AMD Athlon X2 upgrade? Worthwhile?

Solution
AM2+ and AM3 CPU which is replaceable but you might be limited to a 95watt chip, what is the model # of the computer. Upgrading is pretty easy you will just need a replacement CPU and some new thermal paste both can be found for around $15-$90 depending on the upgrade potential of the motherboard.

Is it worth the upgrade? Well that depends on the motherboard and what it will accept.
