Onboard Gaphics, which to choose

[Aryaink]

Hi,

I am going for a low end system. I have decided on following config,


AMD AthlonII x4 640
GSkill/Corsair 1x4GB DDR3 1333MHz
Seagate 500GB
FSP SagaII 500W
CM Elite 310

ASUS M4A78LT-M LE 2.5k (ATI Radeon 3000) or
Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H (ATI Radeon HD 4250)

but am tore between two Mobos, one with ATI Radeon 3000 and one with ATI Radeon HD 4250 onboard graphics.The Asus one is under my budget, and Gigabyte one exceeds it, though the difference is not much in price, but still I would like to know how much difference is there in the performance of onboard graphics of these two.
I would be running, Photoshop CS5, Illustrator CS5, AfterEffects CS5, PremierPro CS5, Flash CS5 and other similar softwares.

Thanks
Arya

The Gigabyte GA-880GM-UD2H is a newer board and gives you more room to upgrade later, The HD4250 also trumps the HD3000.

^ hey thanks, but how much is the difference ? Is there any scale out there ?
How about Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-US2H, with ATI Radeon HD 4200 ? IS this board an old one too ?

The 785 chipset is aging but have a look on Google for some reviews etc. on these motherboards.
