My friend's Friend is selling his FX 6100 and Asus M5A88-M for 9k..He used it for almost a Year..Is that a correct price for a used product or should i ask him to reduce somewhat ? (tell me how much i can ask)
Both products current market price is over 12k..I'm planning to get a Good GPU along with this so want to spend money on GPU rather to put on new processor and motherboard...

FX 6100 isn't a good cpu AFAIK.

I currently own Athlon II x3... FX is better than Athlon right?

Yes, it would be better, but sI would still suggest you to save that money and sum up some more.

what about the motherboard ? will that motherboard support AM3 processors like Athlon ?

the mobo supports AM3+ cpus and FX 6100 is better than Ahlon II X3 ( both in agmes and encoding apps ) - see if you can get the deal for 8k ;-)
