I'm getting a new motherboard from newegg (GA-MA770T-UD3P) soon but I'm torn on which processor to get. I'd like to have a quad-core processor with speed around 3 Ghz. I know the obvious thing would be to get a Phenom X4 but I'm only gonna have about $100 to spend on the processor. So what do you think I would have a better chance with: overclocking an Athlon II x4 to around 3 Ghz or unlocking the other 2 cores on the Phenom II x2?
