Computer CPU Architechture

This is one of those questions that if you have to ask, you're not qualified to understand the answer. This is like asking a custom car kit manufacturer which engine (Saab or Cogsworth) will work best in their competitor's car kit.

_{I'll bet you that the reason your not asking the makers of this Mercury board is that you've already worn out your welcome with them.}

I don't think they are compatible being two competing hardware manufacturers.

Best to stick with either Intel OR AMD, not a mix of both. This also goes for upgrading parts of your computer system.
