System Specs

cpu upgrade?

I have the ASRock Extreme4 mb w/Phenom II X3 720BE.
I did unlock the 4th core with some success, but eventually caused system failures.
I liked the speed I got from the 4th core unlocked (even bumped the freq to 3010Mhz). So my question is the FX line better then the Phenom II or would I be better sticking with Phenom II but either X4 or X6? Keep in mind I usually don't have much $$ to spend, so around 100-150bucks is about what I can do for now.

Oh, as a side note: With only 3 cores I get lag on games and slower programs.

Thanks for any suggestions
