Im starting to collect info. regarding building PC, and im starting with MOBO, do you think its worth buying 478 MOBO nowadays coz pretty soon 478 will be a thing of the past, what would be a best MOBO and socket to use in this days. :)
 
I assume you mean Intel based motherboards? S775 is probably the way to go, but you'll want to wait for the 945/955 if you want dual core support as it doesn't look like the current 915/925s will support it.
 
Doesnt really matter much as 478 is, at the least, old-technology. (also I think he was referring to the architecture as a whole). S775 is definitely the way to go for Intel peeps :)
 
thanks guys:)...oh do you have any suggestion about which board should i look into, what brand of board. thanks again:)
 
if you want one right now I'd say a 915 based (best cost vs performance), any brand (not ECS tho) otherwise wait a bit (should be around may) and some new ones will be released
