Well I am currently in the market for a small, fast and cheap pc for my girlfriend. The options I see are a nf2 igp, radeon express 200, and the geforce 6150. If I’m missing anything please tell me, I’m trying to see exactly what would give me the best graphical experience with out the need of a gfx card (cause that would require more cash than I have) now only if I can get a board and a gpu cheaply enough would I consider that as a option

p.s. if this is the wrong place my apolgies please move it
 
The 6150 integrated is supposed to be very good and that is what I would get if I was going for integrated graphics. If you are on a really low budget, I'd suggest a good Sempron64 (754 pin), 512 RAM, and a 6150 series MoBo.

Budget or not, I'd build that badboy with a nice size HD and xp pro with office (all legit haha) and I'd use the money saved to buy something for myself...

just a thought. It's nice to shop for yourself once in ahwile

IN WIN S506T.I430FU2D Case with 430W Power Supply

AMD Sempron 64 2600+ Palermo

what do you guys think and it comes to 315
 
Dump the motherboard, get a different one from ASRock or any other.

the board is socket 754 and 939 that is the only reason i am going with it it allows a solid upgrade path when i can afford a socket 939 proceser i wouldnt take this path if AMD RELEASED THE GOD DAMN 939 semprons
