Asus provides motherboards for both AMD and Intel. No one board will support both.

You will need to find a board that supports your particular CPU.

A budget would be nice. I take it you're after Core 2 Duo support?

The Asus P5B or P5B Deluxe would be good. Are you only considering Asus?

Actually there is a mobo which supports AMD and Intel CPU's. It's the ECS PF88. And there should be another one which has sockets for both AMD and Intel on the motherboard without the need for an addon card, I'll try to find the article I read. And here's an animation showing the cards CPU support.
