I will suggest you Socket 939 for AMD Because it support SSE2 and SSE3 Instructions In witch You Can Run Appple Mac os x Tiger x86 10.4.6 Smoothly. I also Have Amd Athlon 64 3200+ Processor.

there was a point of time, not more than a few months ago where amd single core processors were much better than their intel counterparts, for instance an amd 3800 could beat an intel 3.2 ghz hands down, ps they were cheaper. but since the advent of intel core2 duo, intel has regained the market. core2 duo's are much cheaper than amd dual core's and much better in performance. if you are looking for single core processors, then amd still is better than intel single cores. dont even think about a celeron, they shouldnt be mentioned over here.\nlol

AMD is better cos they are usaully 64 bits where as celeron are 32bit

Any motherboard running an Intel 915 chipset or better. There are some Intel 865 boards back on the market but they are not as good as the 915, 925, 945, 955 and 975 chipsets.\n\nMotherboards in the budget region of hte market will work as well but they will affect your performance negativly, yes i am refering to boards using the VIA and SIS chipsets (they are okay for celeron D but will also negativly affect the performance of teh already bottle necked celeron D). \n\nIf you need some thing on the cheap side for an intel pentium 4 or Celeron D then go for an Intel Grand county motherboard with an ATI xPress 200 chipset.

A8N32-sli doesn't support AM2 socket, only 939 so th eonly thing to do is return the processor and get a 939 socket version. Athlon64 X2 5000+ comes only with AM2 socket. The highest you can go for 939 is 4800+.

amd 2500+  >= P4 2500\namd 3000+  >= P4 3000\namd 4000+  >= P4 4000\namd 4600+  >= P4 4600\nand remember that the numbers on amd arn't the ferequency . they are  numbers to make compares more real between amd and intel .

AMD not just for the value but for superior performance as well.  The latest generation of AMD Athlons completely shredded Intels offerings.  The fastest AMD chip currently is the Athlon 64 FX-57 series followed by the FX-55 series.  Just behind those are the AMD 64 4000+ and the AMD 64x2 4800+.  See the link for a benchmark comparisons of 77 processors, notice how all the ones at the top are AMD processors.  Intel chips are, lacking to say the least.\n\nI'm into gaming so for gamers there is no better choice than AMD.\n\nI'll let the benchmark speak for itself.

Roughly 60 per cent.  AMD has been a chip favored by gamers and graphics users  But Intel's latest dual core chip has surpassed it in benchmark tests.

if you want to use it for doing fast programming or heavy proccesing INTEL® is the best, but if you want to do graphical jobs or heavy games or normal use AMD® is the best.AMD uses crystal® technology which i love it!! but if you give it hard work for long time the crystals start to burn and you will burn your CPU!!!\nINTEL® uses cabon™ technology which is not bad but if you work on TOO fast and HEAVY proccesing the carbon starts to warm and reduces the CPU REAL time\none more wrong thing the others said is that ANY CPU's clock is standard and there is no diffrence between them(in same clock) the total job is sensible after a full proccesing!!

top notch equipment there...\n\none thing, now is a really bad time to be building systems. intel's conroes are coming out next month and they beat amd's processors by a rather large margin. also, amd released socket am2, however, it yields very little performance boost which will hopefully be changed in their next modifications.\n\nbut if u must have a new system now...i don't see what's wrong with that layout.

Stay away from the cheapest ones (PC Chips, etc) I have a fondness for Intel chipsets because I run Intel chips. GigaByte, Intel, and MSI all make good IntelCPU boards and I have personal good experience with them. For AMD CPUs I'd stick with Asus or MSI although I have heard good things about DFI LanParty boards

The old Thunderbird Athlon at 1.1ghz is a Socket A.\nAMD had a good long run of Socket A processors up to the Athlon 3200+

I would recommend an AMD processor.

Never heard of a socket N. You said it's a P4 1.8GHz, then it's most likely a socket 478 P4 motherboard. It depends now if you need a mobo with or without an onboard graphics controller.\n\nMaybe one of the following mobo's fit your requirements\nhttp://www.geeks.com/products_sc.asp?cat=469\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.asp?DEPA=0&type=&description=motherboard+478+socket&Submit=ENE&Ntk=all&N=0&minPrice=&maxPrice=&Go.x=14&Go.y=28
