guys m lookin ahead 2 buy amd x2 3800+(no conroe pls) with good on-board graphics. i decided on msi k9ngm2 with 6150 chipset. But later i came 2 know bout. MCP61(p/s/v) and C51PVG chipsets. pls elaborate on these chipsets.
R these better than 6150 or shud i buy 6150 only. also 4 info 6150 provides more features. thanks in advance.
:hap2:
 
Get that board you thought of getting. 6150 is nothing but C51. MCP61 is a single chip version of the same and actually supposed to a lower end solution. I don't think there'll be any difference in performance as the on die memory controller of the K8 cpus just doesn't bring the chipset into the performance equation. If you intend to play games, rather get a discrete video card since all of them suck really bad.
 
^^ yup, go for onboard only if you simply do not have any serious gaming requirements. If gaming is the last thing you do, then the VGA onboard 6150 is more than enough for occasional "old" games ,EXPECT no visual treats though.
 
AMD X2 3800+ (Rs. 7000/-)/ AMD X2 3600+ (Rs. 5700/-)

MSI K9NGM2 Motherboard (Rs. 4900/-) / ASUS M2NPV-VM Motherboard (Rs. 4900/-)

Get any of the above mentioned Boards, they both are equally good boards.
