|
|
I want a decent board that has integrated video as well as audio and I've
been looking at the Shuttle MN31N (at newegg for $80).
It looks pretty good and I was wondering if anyone has any first hand
experience with this board.
I want to pair it with a Barton 2500+ cpu.
If not Shuttle then can anyone recommend another decent AMD board with
onboard audio/video for about $100?
Thanks,
Walter |

Check out the Biostar M7NCG400 at newegg.com. $66.00 bucks with free shipping.
includes nforce 2 chipset, up to 400 mhz bus speed, IDE 133, geforce 4 video
and onboard sound and LAN. I used one and it works great!!! |

Actually the Shuttle board you mentioned would probably be just as good. The
bad thing about the Biostar board is that it did not come with a back plate and
the manual was really horrible.... |

MSI also has a Nforce2-gfx4 based board with dual channel ddr400 that I have had no
problems with and the documentation and package overall is excellent. I believe it is the
K7N2R-XX, where the xx is the identity of the optional features like modem and lan and
raid. I have made many systems from these and the previous versions of this board
(GFX-2/DDR333), no failures, no weird issues, has been very stable and reliable. FYI
