Hi i'm looking for a budget (<£50) mobo with an integrated GPU, or a mobo that is under budget so i can get a cheap GPU (6200LE?).

So far I've found the Asus M2NPV-MX or M2NPV-VM (mATX), the Gigabyte GA_M51GM-S2G (mATX), or the Asrock ALiveNF4G-DVI. Can't decide which is better though.

Anyone have any advice?

Components to go in are:
AMD AM2 3500
Corsair DDR2 XMS2-5400C4 (2x512)
Samsung Spinpoint 80GB SATAII
all into an Antec SLK3800B-uk case (+ 400Wsmartpower).

I know someone is probably going to tell me to get a core 2 duo, but as this PC is only for work, web, music, and maybe video watching, i can see no point in paying the extra for an e6300.
May well be upgrading to Vista when it arrives.

thanks
