Hi, i have a old HP system just laying around, and wanted to bring it back to life. i cant seem to find out what moherboard i have, he bodel number is: HP Pavilion a6322.sc
and the Serial number is: KA912AA#UUW
It is using a AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ cpu.
I think this is he moherboard, but not sure.
ASUS M2N68-LA (Narra2-GL8E

What cpu should i get? that also isnt way to expensive.

An HP BIOS will limit the choices. You need to see what CPUs that model was sold with. Those are probably the only supported CPUs.
