I have a amd athlon x2 250 cpu. I am looking for a budget build for a motherboard that is low price but offer great stability with onboard video. I don't need any good feature since this computer is mainly use for movies, internet, photoshop. I have already a old wd2500ks and a 2gb corsair ddr2 pc 6400 ram. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

$75 Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-US2H

Very good stable name brand mobo, and it can handle a Phenom II after a BIOS flash (same as the ASUS board above). Although I would get some more RAM, for movies and Photoshop.
