Decent Socket 754 mATX motherboard?

[Dr. Gonzo]

I'm currently on the lookout for a good micro ATX motherboard based on Socket 754 for a media centre running off an AMD 3000+ Athlon 64 with 1GB of memory. Decent onboard video would be ideal for HD divX streaming/on demand TV recording and such!

Thanks.

Biostar T-force6100-754,

great mobo, onboard nvidia 4 graphics, decent sound, SATA II, RAID and overclocks well and is very, very stable. Owned one for a few months, at present runs my VENICE core athlon 64 3000 skt 754 at 10x260mhz=2.6ghz (3000 on skt754 has a 10x multiplier) at 1.48v.

Probably costs about £45inc vat if you look around.

Agreed, the t force is as good as oc'ing as the dfi lanparty nf3 (and more stable from my experiance.)

It has an intergrated graphics chip and its not half bad.

I'm building an HTPC - using the Asrock K8NF4G-SATA2 mobo - since it takes mobile a64's and in my case it will have a Turion in it (ML-40). Excellent mobo for £30-and-a-bit.
