So I want a new CPU (3 - 4 GHZ is possible) for my motherboard but I dont really know a lot about them! (atm I dont have a price range but please just post the best cpu for my mobo)

My motherboard - http://www.findlaptopdriver.com/pegatron-2a99-specs-corporation-3282011h25/

Processor Support Socket AM3 (Max 95W) AMD Phenom II X4 Quad-Core, Phenom II X3 Triple-Core, Phenom II X2, Athlon II X4, Athlon X3, Athlon II X2, Sempron
 
AMD Phenom II X4 Quad-Core

Any of them?

@OP,

Is it possible you can look at the actual motherboard and see the actual maker and model of the motherboard? or maybe download CPU-Z and see what it says under the mainboard tab?

The reason being you need to check what CPU's are compatible (hopefully theres a CPU support list somewhere), I see you also mention it has a maximum of 95W support, so that rules out CPU's such as the PhenomII X4 955BE and 965BE which OcUK have in stock- http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=701&catid=1967&subid=1943 - as they are 125W CPU's.
