I had already suggested for ~18k. So you can either choose a true quad like the AthlonII X4 640 ~4.6k or go for a 785G mobo for ~3.5k or 4GB Kingston DDR3 1333MHz ~ 1.95k
 
Thanks for the suggestions, please tell me which one of the following is best in performance.

AMD Athlon II x3 440

AMD Athlon II x4 640

AMD Phenom II x2 555 BE

AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE

955BE obviously... But it's hard to include in your budget plus for your requirements x3 440 is more than enough...
 
Athlon II x4 640 outperforms 555BE in almost every task so IMO you should go with x4 640
