Need more information. Do you want to buy a new processor? You must buy a mb that support your processor.

i recently bought the asrock b75pro for only 55 euros, along with a intel celeron 1620g ivy bridge, only 32 euro.

so together they were 87 euro, and the cpu is very energy efficient, it has a tpd of 35 watt.

Hi!
You can also try this AMD combo:

Asrock 970 Extreme 4 + AMD Sempron 145 (Energy Eficient).
This setup is also very cheap and will do vey well too!

Hope i could help out!
