Yep DDR-II is not backward compatible. The pin count is 240 as opposed to 184 of DDR. Also, the notch on the RAM stick is at a different position. So you cannot accidentally force DDR into a DDR-II slot or vice versa.

If its AMD the choice starts here!!!!!
**AMD 64 X2 4400+@dun know(Extreme perf with 2x1mb cache)
**AMD 64 X2 3800+@13~14k (costly it might seem, but defenitely worth it 2x512kb)
**AMD 64 3500+ @9.5~10k (extreme perfomance in overall single threaded apps and good compared to dual cores in multithreaded apps)
**AMD 64 3200+@7k (Good perfomance and very good value for money and has potential to oc to hogh values)
**A8NE @ ~5.5k (Very good mobo with tons of everclocking options and rock solid with nf4 ultra)
**A8N SLI Deluxe@8k (SLi ready, highly ocable, great value SLI mobo,nf4SLI)
**MSI K8N Diamond@8~9k(SLI ready, ocable, creative 24bit 7.1 onboard audio, tons of features, nf4SLI)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
All of these are 64 bit and vista compatible. If u add a GF7 series card u can enjoy the transperencies and other visuals in Vista (At least a FG7300@5k)
All of these mobos(and proc) supports only DDR1 (but at ultra low latencies) but could produce higher memory bamdwidth scores than DDR2 on Intel if u use quality rams with low latencies and good mobos(above ones).
------------------------------------------------------------------
For the mentioned price ur best choice(if AMD) would be a 3200+9 with an A8N E mobo.

hmmmmmm it seems I hav to add some more fund to my budget . K I can stretch upto 16000 .but which 1 is gud choice for me
:-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.Intel D 820+945 ASUS P5LD2
2.AMD 3800+ X2 and a ASUS A8N-E
Which of above is a gud performer and and will run smoothly to next 2 years.

AMD AMD AMD...its hell of the bast yaar...its stock speed is 2ghz and it can be easily overclocked to 2.6 with stock cooling and above with good cooloing. Isn't it gr8??? U can hear bout personnel xperience of freaks who own such proc from xbitlabs forum or some other worldwide forums or tomshardware. And nothing much to say bout A8NE..do we..
But intel procs suck...running at higher clocks and generating more heat. Also for AMD u can go for comparatively cheaper SLI solution mobo even from ASUS(A8N SLI) at 7.8k or less. But for intel SLI mobo is sure to cost a bomb.

Huh ??? Conroe is supposed to be dual core no ??? And that quad core thingy .. isn't the K8L being developed by AMD ???
And about the upgrade .. go for a P4 EM64T processor with a 915 mbo .. with a guaranteee of 600 MHz oc with ddr333/400 ram ... it should beat the corresponding AMD ... hell i mean .. get a 2.8 .. and run it at 3.4 ....

as far as dual core processors are concerned AMD are much better than Intel coz in intel the basic principle is that only one processor can be used at a time, whereas in AMD both the processor cores function simultaneously. (Source: A seminar on dual core processors from a well known tech guide.) but dual cores are expensive for ur budget. U can instead opt for AMD 3200 with ASUS A8N-VM MOBO. it has all ur requirements and an onboard Geforce 6 graphics chipsets. I am using the same config and the performance is gr8.
i do want to know....the intel cache memory is greater than that of AMD in all models??? then how can the AMD copeup with being atleast good ?
y do ppl say AMD, when they have l2 cache high in intel? wot are the rules / feautres have to be looked in AMD ????
is there any ebooks / sites to tell all about processors??? so that i cud learn atleast something about them..??

well things changed yet again...intels new launch pentium d 804 is beating amds any processor....its dual core, n costs very much affordable 6400 bux....n wats d best it beats amd's fastest cpu wihout over heating + being overclocked.....check toms hardware again for d updated news....
