    Re: microATX motherboard

    SIM's are newer as are the nvidia 610 and 630i boards .

    AMD wise there is the 690 and 780G boards the latter of which comes with a very good integrated graphics solution and the nvidia 8200 (beaten to it )

    G35 is the only one offering DVI of the intel boards.. and the nvidia 630 boards offer DVI but only single channel RAM.

    Re: microATX motherboard

    What's wrong with the 945 chipset? You can get nice DVI-capable ones

    Re: microATX motherboard

    Have the Nvidia 8200 Chipsets come out? How do these compare to the 680G/780G AMD chipsets?

    Edit: Sorry, meant 690G chipset.

    Re: microATX motherboard

    There is a preview here (quite extensive preview)
    NVIDIA GeForce 8200 Preview - Palit N78S :: TweakTown

    It's compared to the 690G not the 780G though.

    Looks to be good. I didn't really read it but I would imagine they are riddled with driver issues for the new hybrid SLi where I believe you can save power by using the onboard graphics rather than a discrete gfx card when doing easier graphical tasks.

    I don't know how much it will be but from a price/performance point of view I like the 780G boards.
