Socket 754 is the current standard.
These motherboards supports only single-channel RAM, but this is not really a problem for a typical user.
The newer socket 939 supports both Athlon 64 and Athlon 64FX CPUs, and dual-channel RAM.
Athlon 64 on socket 939 is the first AMD to equal or exceed P4 memory bandwidth. (Although very powerful performers overall, this had always been a weak point for AMD).
In tests of Doom3, Athlon 64 slaughtered P4EE chips that cost twice as much ;-)
An Asus K8V-X mobo plus an Athlon 64 2800 would be a great combination, costing $319 CDN/AUS
Which is only 128 Pounds Sterling or $240 US.
You could spend as much on two sticks of RAM (but, you need only one) LoL
