I like both. I used to hit it 5x a week, the standard m-f routine. Now I do weights 2 on 1 off and on the off day Ill hit some light cardio for 45 mins or so. Works pretty well. Every now and then Ill take a full day off, but not too often. As for your question, Id go 4 days if you are trying to add more mass or 5 day split if your shooting more for a leaner body.

My all time favorite is a 3-day split, push/pull/legs.

fraseram, you're natural. Bodypart splits really aren't great for natties. You're probably better off hitting everything at least twice a week.
Wondering where to start? Confused? "Homework 1" will get you started.
Think you're ready for the "next step"? Take this test.

Im thinking that is what ringing bells for me rather than the one part per week split

13 day! FTW! haha, OJ
4 day would be better, hitting movement patterns as opposed to bodyparts."That ain't big to me, when y'all 300lbs y'all big!"- Dexter Jackson
