Hi leowonderful,
Many thanks for the reply.I am not very technical

Thanks

No kidding?  I would not have guessed.  You better get technical very quickly or hire someone who is.  Otherwise, just buy low and sell high.

For Intel, this is a list of processors supporting AES. You can sort by socket, etc so you'll probably be able to find a CPU with the same socket (1156). The next tier up in that generation are the i5s and the i5 650 supports AES (should be compatible with your current Mobo).

Literally any CPU that supports AES will do; it is usually listed in the Intel datasheet or AMD, just look it up. You don't want to specifically buy a CPU for mining in most cases though, 99% of the time it is more economical and better to buy a GPU for mining.

To mine Bitcoin?  None.  To mine something else?  Post in the Altcoin section for that, this is Bitcoin only area.
