Ok, I'm usually good at finding these things out myself, but for some reason I can't seem to find a 100% definite answer to this. Here's my question. I have a perfectly good motherboard from out of an older emachines computer I am wanting to use for a new build for a second computer. The only thing I can't figure out is what the best processor is that this board can handle. Here's what I know about it.

Motherboard: MSI Model: MS-7207 Ver. 2.0 , K8NGM2-H

It came out of an emachines model no. T6536

The problem I'm having is there seems like there and about a dozen different versions of that board. I can't seem to find definite specs on the K8NGM2-H version of it.

If anyone can tell me with 100% certainty what kind of processors this board can handle with as much details as possible(cause the way AMD labels their processors confuses the hell out of me too) I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Socket 939, or in other words processors that aren't really worth upgrading to considering it has been a dead socket for a couple of years already.
