confusion for supported mother board for a P4 processor
i visited http://www.intel.com and i coudnt find out if the following processor supports D915GLVGL motherboard or not(or which motherboard) for this processor and if it has DDR2 ram and single core or dual core cos the info there is too complicated and im not that much known for hardware :p so this is the processor:
* Pentium 4 processor 630 (with Hyper Threading Technoloy)
3.0 ghz 2mb cache (900 mhz) ,architecture:LGA775
any help would be more than enough appreciated :p

"(900MHz)" ?????????
You mean 800MHz? Do you have the box on hand?
Your board says this.

Memory: Four DDR SDRAM DIMM sockets, Support for DDR 400 MHz and DDR 333 MHz DIMMs, Support for up to 4 GB of system memory. Chipset: Intel 915GL Chipset.
What type of activity are you going to be doing with the board? I don't approve of Intel boards only chipsets.
That 6XX series pressy is guaranteed to be the latest stepping. For it will clock out of this world on just stock HSF (air) with no v-core changed. That's if you want to get a good board like Asus P5WD2 or if you're on a budget Abit AA8XE or an Abit AS8 hybrid. What's your budget and activity?
