i currently have a 1.7 P4 and its slow for encoding. i encode avi/mpeg to mpeg 4 for my psp and need to choose a new cpu mobo combo. i newegged and so far chose the P4 530J and MSI Mobo with 1gb corsair value ram ddr2. its around $450. so should i pick this for encoding or go the Amd route. I know they are a little cheaper but heard intels are better for encoding. just looking for some input thanks
