A64 3000+ vs. P4 3.0E

[LeRoy]

I am looking to buy a new computer and cannot decide between the A64 3000+ or P4 3.0E. If i got the intel i would have Hyperthreading and would be using hyperx dual channel ram. The AMD chip has neither of these. Do these features make the intel a better chip, or is AMD still better. Also, please give advice on which motherboard to use with each. Thanks for your time.

A64 3000+ is better unless you use your system mainly for video encoding
