anyone here knowledgeable about AMD processors? (I'm not) I have this 
motherboard https://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/980de3u3s3/ currently using 
AMD Athlon II X3 420 processor and would like to upgrade the CPU. does 
anyone know what would be the best option? I will have to buy used on 
eBay of course, I assume. thanks,

Supported CPU list tells you which CPU's are supported and you can 
compare performance using the power of Google and youtube.

I used a FX4350 for about a decade and was going to upgrade to an FX8350 
but the board died and put an end to that.

btw.. this motherboard is great. it has everything, SATA2, SATA3, IDE, 
floppy, HDMI, USB2, and USB3. a rather unusual motherboard

No, the Opteron is a new, low power (as in wattage) processor but the 
FX8350 is a much better performer.

Type "Opteron vs FX8350 comparison" into Google.

AMD Piledriver CPUs had 1 FPU and 1 scheduler shared between a pair of 
integer units. They did poorly on a Windows home PC. They did better on 
server mainboards with quad-channel memory and Linux. But anyway get rid 
of the Athlon, that is a half-ratpower CPU.

plenty still available on the web, with widely varying prices. I'll 
decide what I want when I know what I should pay for each variant
