Suggestion on brewing mac(choosing hardware)

[Rickpot]

I am still struggling on taking side on amd or intel

because of considering which board can be fully working, like lan, and sound

 

as I want to have a matx size of new pc I have considered the following config

with my old Seagate 250 sata harddisk and Liteon DVD-RW drive.

In which I don't know if the sound output/input port correct or not, or the onboard display working or not in leopard, may I have your suggestion?

I'm not an expert in this department as I bought a computer and installed Mac around it as apposed to buying a computer around Mac. But I do know that you will find it easier using the Pentium D as apposed to an AMD processor as it's supported more natively due to the whole Intel Mac thing.

 

Also I have an Intel Pentium Dual Core processor and that works just great
