I have noticed that most poeple use brand boards (ex. asus, abit etc.) when working on a build. Is there some advantage to these brands than just building with the straight intel boards. After all, aren't they using the same chipsets. Let me put it like this. I am considering a build but I am trying to decide whether to go with the intel d955xbk or the asus p5wd2 premiun. Any suggestions and reasons for the suggestion . Thanks for any advice.
 
I would go with AMD but I don't consider myself an Extreme Gamer but a power user and I have seen testimony after testimony of how the intel are better (well rounded) for multitasking and certain aps for business.
 
Even Intel Dual Core Pentium-Ds are no match for AMD's X2s.

And ofcourse, you know that clock speed means nothing when comparing AMD and Intel.
 
O.K. i've done some quick reading. give me the answers to the quiz. Which 939 boards should I consider?
