go to newegg.com and look for processors, there are tons faster than your 3400 that can easily be found there at lowest market prices.

Your other options are basically 3500+, 3800+, or 4000+

If are looking to upgrade, I would get a new mobo and go for a socket 939 or with the 940 for opty's.

if yours has 1MB l2 Cache, no.

you can always upgrade your Graphics card, maybe a 6600GT AGP?

BTW: the only A64 in 754 where:
2800
3000
3200
3400
3700

Don't forget about the Turion's also, the Newark would be about the best 754 cpu.

Mobile 4000+

That's better. It runs at 2.6GHz and it's a mobile core, which means it can take more heat, so you should have more room to OC.
