What is a good, cheap AMD CPU for overclocking? It won't be used much so it doesn't matter if it's old, but it has to be cheap even if I have to buy it used.

Hello, Juliet .
Phenom II X6 BE or Phenom II X4 BE. Not a huge difference between model numbers within each of these types.

Overclocking a CPU that's cheap, and used. Pick anyone you want, just keep a fire extinguisher nearby.

Pope Francis is 100% right.
Keep a fire extinguisher handy.
EDIT: I also agree with Omar, for the Phenoms.
