It isn't worth it. You can get a much better mobo/ cpu combo for 100 under dollars like a Sempron 3100+ with a motherboard or a Celeron D 2.93ghz with a motherboard for around 100 bucks.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+
2GB Dual Channel DDR 3200
Nvidia 6800GT
SATA II 250gig 7200rpm 8mb cache
Gigabyte Nforce 4 SLI

Assuming that that's a Slot A Athlon, the max you could put in that board would be a 1.0GHz Athlon. Slot A of course.
