Hello, The GX is the next-generation BX, per Intel. It allows for more memory (2GB) than the BX. Also, if the board has slot-2, Xeon processors can be used. Given a choice, I would suggest going with the S2DGU than the P6DGU, if you plan to upgrade to future Xeon CPUs. The Xeons also seem to be more server-oriented than the P-IIs. Since the chipset is slot 1 and 2 compatible, there is a possibility that most of the motherboard manufacturers will use the GX over the BX soon. You might want to take a look at: http://developer.intel.com/design/agpsets/440gx/ Good luck, Kedar. Take care, Kedar Rajadnya. ASA Computers, Inc.
