Best M-ATX with integrated graphics Intel/AMD

Christo · 7 Feb 2007 at 23:09

I am still deciding whether to go AMD or Intel, but in the meantime, I am trying to find a mATX motherboard with the best integrated graphics.

Would I be right in saying that the Abit NF-M2 is the best AM2 board? (6150 Geforce)

Anyone know of any better or of a decent Intel board with decent(ish!) int graphics.

wow the 945 must really suck then

, neither will be any good at games really, thats a given, but the 965m certainly does a much better job of HD and x.264 files in my experience

945G is fine. Used it before I got my X1950, it's around FX5600 speeds in terms of gaming performance.

Why do you think the 965G boards are so delayed? Intel have had huge problems with that chipset, only Asus tried releasing a board with it, and it's had stability problems.
