A few questions!

Hi,

Im planning on making a pc in a mini case and have a few questions to ask.

1) One of the cases motherboard is for intel processor which is a 478 socket. Am i right that this is a rather old type of intel socket also it has a external bus of 533/800, what does this mean and is it alright, i dont want a superfast pc and i want around a 3.0 speed processor

2)On a differnt mini motherboard all it says is that it is a socket 754, does this mean its for AMD only and if so what ones can i use i want the same sort of speed as written in the other question?

3) Ive found a AMD Sempron 3400 [2.0GHZ,754]R 64 Socket 754 64bit which i think goes in this http://www.aria.co.uk/productinfocomm.asp?ID=19583&SpecialStatus=1 What are the specs like.

I want to use the pc for music, DVD's and watchin TV, not for games. Is that processor good enogh for now and in the future. I though it was good, was more then needed.

thanks

478 is not very old
and it's perfect for your needs
the bus speed of 533\800 is right
it just tells you it supports processors with this bus
you can get Pentium 4 processor and use it with this board
