But, that CPU is VERY expensive in Sweden.
The Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 4200+ costs about SEK 1500-1600

AMD Dual-Cores at that speed are around SEK4-700 for other Mobo's

That, together with your mentioned PSU and a cheap (cheap!) supported Mobo would practically go for almost the same price, somewhat more, in the end. Is this a bad idea (decrease in mobo(?) for a gain in cpu)?

Nice to see a fellow scandinavian by the way, I was expecting someone to lead me to a US website.
