Ok here goes! I'm about to upgrade my old AMD 3500 939 socket to an AMD 6300. Is it likely that by something short of a miracle my old Tagan 520 watt PSU that is in my 939 socket motherboard would be compatible with the current crop of boards? For the record I'm looking to purchase an Asus Sabertooth 990FX board plus said 6300 processor.

Thanks ahead.
 
It'll be compatible with the motherboard. Might not have the correct number/type of PCI-E connectors for a modern graphics card though
 
It may be compatible but things like capacitors inside the psu degrade over time. If that psu is as old as the rest of the system I would replace it.
