The ECS website gives the following list of supported Athlon64 processors.Id suggest going with the highest processor your budget will allow and giving you some limited future proofing.

ECS C51G-M754 is a socket 754 motherboard.
May be rough to find a cpu for it.
Here is a list of what they made in 754

May be best to update the mobo and get a better cpu for it.
Ditto what Train says about updating. I think the only place to find a Socket 754 Athlon ATM is eBay, and they're fetching $100 or better at the moment for the 3700. Going any less on the CPU wouldn't be worth the trouble of swapping them out, IMHO.
