So, it's a Pentium 4 motherboard. Unless you buy a special expansion card and insert it into the special PCI-Express slot. Then it becomes an Athlon 64 motherboard!
You cannot run both processors at once, nor can you run either one if the other is present. You have to switch the video card position and processor every time you want to change.
Why would anyone want to go through this trouble? Curiousity as to how AMD and Intel processors compare to each other? If that's the case, they would get a skewed view, as the AMD processor is crippled by the unusual interface. I'm wondering who the target market for this motherboard is, and what ECS was thinking when they decided to put it on market.
