Welll if ur going for Pentium D then go for ASUS mobo.......
for the chipset 945 is easily available.....

For AMD u won't get a dual core processor in ur budget......

26k on the mobo alone?

if that is your budget for entire system then you are not going to get dual core, only crappy intel ones, not conroe or anything great at stock.

please tell us details.

i think he means 26k on processor + mobo
my suggestion:
>Intel® Pentium® D Processor 3.0GHz / 2x2M /800MHz /LGA775 (930) [18k]
(the Pentium D 940 would exceed your budget.)
>Intel D915 GAVL Motherboard (SOUND+AGP+PCI Express 16x slot) (775 pin)(OEM M/B) [7k]

If ur more into gaming then definately go for AMD.. atleast 3000+ venice core... coz...

1. its cheaper
2. runs cooler
3. consumes less power
4. better benchies for gaming.
