I have the choice of a Phenom II X4 955 BE or a Phenom II X4 940 BE as a processor upgrade from my computer, I can get the 940 for free or pay 30 bucks and get a 955 BE. Seeing as my mother board is meant for AM2+, but cab run AM3, what would be the speed difference? I can either get the fastest CPU in the world or one right below it for free. I truthfully do not know what to do, because my mobo is really meant for AM2+ stuff with AM3 support as a bonus.
EDIT:the reason I can get the 940 for free is I am building a computer for a guy from my old parts, and giving him my 9600 BE to use (he is gonna do light gaming and stuff)
EDIT 2: fastest AMD CPU in the world meant for DESKTOPS
