i think the 172 dollar one would be better because it is cheaper than the other one, and it has 2 MB of L2 Cache

Supply and demand. The 630 is actually a better processor because it has the EM64T extensions and the extra cache.

Just use the LGA 775 in your search and you'll get a matching mobo. I'd lean towards Intel or Asus branded mobo's.

The socket 478 mobo's used either a P4 Northwood core or later on the Prescott core was introduced for that socket. Then the LGA 775 socket was introduced and it is only Prescott core. I think when you select the plain Pentium 4 you're asking for the 478 socket mobo's.
