    My thoughts exactly. Chalk up a vote in support of AlienDyne's judgement.

    1. It depends from the model.
    They both make motherboards for Intel and AMD.

    2. It also depends from the model.

    I would check their products on their websites if I were you.

    Keep in mind that these two is an excellent choice, but expensive.

    OK heres my two cents worth, I just bought the Asus cuv266, this board supports the Intel CPUs and DDR ram
    Do you want to build an Intel based system or an AMD based system
    I would go with the DDR memory since it is double the speed of sdram and it is cheaper than rdram
    Format c I'm givin er all she's got cap'in !!! )

    ATX is a form factor of a case or board..

    BTW, if you're buying a P4, make sure you get the Socket 478 version, as all the future P4s are going to be in that format (As opposed to Socket 423).
