I have Asus A8N-E (939 pin supported only) and a 3000+ o/c'ed to 2250Mhz. I want to buy a dual core processor.What are my upgrade options in terms of 939 pin X2 (I do not have the money right now for a complete system overhaul :()? If something is available, what will be the price?

X2 3800+ - around 8k's
X2 4200+ - around 11k's

As u already are familiar with OC , don't get anything beyond 4200+ .. just oc it ..
