I just went through a similar decision. I wanted P4-M cause no-one really has one.. but the options are limited.. really limited. A mATX board is just not good for a gaming system and the price/performance isn't there either.
I went with a Wenchester 3200+, glad I did, these things just totally rock for the price.

Well, it should fit the mounting bracket of the Aopen, but the 479 socket is lower/shorter than 478, so will it reach? Vapo evaporator can be adjusted downward. Can the Prommie evap be adjusted to reach a lower sitting chip?Originally Posted by computerpro3
