I currently have an Intel 945GTP mobo, it supports up to a Pentium D for socket 775. I was thinking of reselling that mobo and getting a cheap AM2 Board with an AMD Athlon 64 X2 (4400+).

would this be worth the trouble and cost to change to AMD?
The cheapest 4400+ i can find is going for $59 + $14 postage.
The cheapest pentium d i can find is about $120.

I was thinking of this motherboard:
