Micro!

What is the best micro atx board out at the moment? Has to have onboard vga that is, well, the best... so I guess the question should be, which micro atx board has the best onboard graphics?

Would also like it to have onboard sound (5.1) and be AMD. wifi or bluetooth are just plain extras.

I think the Foxconn 6150K8MA-8EKRS has the richest featureset of any of the S939 mATX boards at the moment, but it's beaten in the overclockability stakes by the Biostar TForce 6100 - which itself lacks Firewire.

Foxconn specs here.

Any particular reason why it is so good?

Having a look at the specs now....

What is 'so' good about the 6150 as appose to the 6100?

The 6150 is the faster graphics chip. It comes with the 430 Chipset which has more I/O options like firewire.

The Biostar is excellent, I have one and it's very easy to overclock with.

Take a look at the DFI RS482 Infinity mATX.

The Asrock K8NF4G-SATA2 is a great little board. I've also heard its bigger brother, the 939NF4G-SATA2 is a very good board. Both are fantasticly cheap, <£40. Both have all the features your looking for.

the 6150 also has a tv encoder (ie. tv out) which i think is missing from the 6100 chipset.
might be usefull if your building a media centre.

i put a few bits of info on the foxconn here
