On Board Graphics for socket 939

[sviola]

I was assembling a computer for a friend who only uses his computer for office, internet and old games (emulators), so I got him a Asus A8N-VM, with the geforce6100 graphics, but the board came with a problem and after RMA, the store refunded me, because they had no board to replace.

Now I need to get another board, with graphics on-board. Is it worth going with an ECS RS482-M with the X300 graphics? Or should I try finding another A8N-VM (tough it will prove to be a challenge to find one)?

If hes only going to play games off emulators, then you really dont need much oompf in the graphics department. The X300 should be just fine.

I found a Gigabyte with the nforce 430 + gforce 6100, I think I might be getting it, as it's the same price as the board I had previously bought him. I think I'll get it.
