So DIY experts, which is better (let's exclude Macs for now):
Intel 925X/ATX/socket 775 mobo + Intel Pentium 4 630 or 640 cpu with Hyperthreading 800 FSB (enough expansion slots?)
or
nForce 4 SLI/ATX mobo + Athlon 64 3000+ or 3200+ ?
and is socket 939 better or socket 754?
any recommended brand for mobo (asustek of Taiwan?)?
Wish to hook up WLAN (g) with two older computers at home enabling broadband and sharing of devices, WinXP, at least 1MB RAM, some multimedia (DVDRW, separate sound and video cards, maybe more later on), moderate gaming (nothing extreme), and regular home PC use. Have some concern about future scalability of usage/options and longevity because in time you always end up wanting to do more than you imagine at first. Price variation of a couple of grand (HKD) is fine. Thanks.
