Exclamation Help on upgrading my CPU

I have just bought a new mainboard namely asrock N68-S skt AM2/AM3 , which processor would be the best one for me to buy ?
Currently I am having amd x2 4800, my system is basically standard onboard gfx/snd 2Gb 800Mhz ram. Just looking for some advice on which processor would be the best to buy, a high speed gaming a faster AMD X2 or a skt AM3 processor ?
I am looking to spend about £50 even maybe go to more for the right one .
Advices are always appreciable.

For gaming, I would recommend an AMD Phenom II because it is much faster and is highly overclockable.

If you wanna use your system for gaming, think of getting a decent gpu rather than depending on the onboard gfx. dude it sucks!
