Nope, it goes up to the 3700, but they're hard to find and expensive.

$300+ for a 3700+? Wow. Talk about in need of a motherboard upgrade!

DO NOT GET THAT! I have never seen such an outragous price for a 64.

I only paid $140 for my cpu and its twice as good as that one

I voted for AMD simply because its what I've been using for a long time now and feel more comfortable with.

I have used Intel since day one. Never a problem. Don't see any reason to change.
