Hi :)
Need some help please on upgrading my CPU

I have a AMD 939, 64 3.0gig processor and would like to put the AMD 64 4.0gig as they are so cheap on OC.
First would my current motherboard handle it if the BOIS was up to date?
Would i need a another heat sink and fan?
Would MY PSU be able to handle it to?

Been trying to look at the motherboard web site but have no luck in what it can really do.

Current PC specs
AMD 64 3gig on LANPARTY UT nF4 SLI-D
2gig ram GForce 7800 GT Oc 256M
Sound blaster X-FI
ViewSonic 19in VX922

any help would be great
Thanks all

Here is a link to my Motherboard to see what u think
