That's your motherboard's specs. It will support the full Athlon 64 X2 range. BUT take note that the Nvidia 6150SE chipset is quite old and was designed before the current breed of X2s came out. ALSO proprietary motherboards usually lack the tweaking options you find on retail and enthusiast motherboards.
Better consider a new retail motherboard if you want to tweak your processor, even just the new X2 5000+ Black Edition with unlocked multipliers. Even when overclocked to 3.1Ghz, it is more energy efficient than X2 6000+ or 6400+.

Go to the motherboards website and see what cpu support for that board says. A model number doesn't say anything about what version of bios you have or what revision motherboard you have. See what the biggest cpu your board will take and what bios you need and if you need a certain revision of the board to run it.
