CPU upgrade help?

[Hugo_Jimenez]

Looking to upgrade my moms Pc and was wondering which cpu could replace the current one in the system.

System: Emachines EL1333G-03W
CPU: AMD LE-1660 2.8Ghz AM2 45watts
Memory: Gskill 4GB DDR2
Mobo: unknown proprietary
Powersupply: unknown

Just looking to get her a dual core or quad core. only concerns are power and will any am2 chip swap out into this pc?

Yes i know its old but honestly runs like a top just one core is kinda lame and these chips are dirt cheap now

best recomendations appreciated.

Doesn't exactly answer the question... But valiant effort.

some forums on google say an athlon 64 x2 5000+ will work. here is where i found it:
