I'd say i'm agree with hobbes_fan recommendation. AMD Athlon 64X2 3600+ is good. ASUS M2N-MX is my current motherboard. I'm using 4200+ on it and run very smoothly...
Other thought : AMD's proc is better than Intel's because AMD has their own memory controller, so, data transfer from processor to RAM go straightly without going to the northbridge first.
