AMD Phenom X4 9850 Black Edition Review

I'm keen on upgrading my X2 6000+ to this Processor. I know it will work on my AM2 board, but will I be able to gain all the benefits. i see it has HT3.0 whereas my board supports 2.0. Will there be a major bottleneck as a result? Also should I stick with my current processor as I'll still probably get higher processing gains than the X4? Where would the X4 actually come in handy?
