I have this configuration currently:
CPU: Athlon II X2 250
MB: MSI MS-7641
RAM: 4GB DDR3
GPU: Some Radeon
I only use my computer for browsing the internet and watching videos online, but the computer is very slow at times and can hang sometimes for a long time, so I'm looking to upgrade.
I will be getting 4 more GBs of ram, but an opportunity has come up to get a AMD FX-6300 for about $35 (it's in my home country's currency, translates to about $35, at any rate it's quite cheap).
I'm wondering:

I'm wondering:
- Does my MB support that CPU?
- Is that CPU significantly faster than my current one? Would it be worth it paying that money for it, or could I find better bang for my buck?
