Will mobo for a "p4 prescott"...

...work with a p4 "northwood"?

Scroll to 'CPU type' to see my concern.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, any of the 865 boards will work with a northwood.

I guess I have to then ask, why would they put the Prescott name in the CPU type? Will the mobo run better with a Prescott... or something? -Don't get it. Note: I'm trying to prevent any hardware conflicts being that the last time I purchased a mobo I got a 533 FSB mobo when I had also ordered a 800 FSB CPU. Don't want to make a stupid error like that again.

Thanks again.
