CNET editors' buying advice
We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Motherboards. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of motherboard.
Built-in Graphics
These motherboards feature an on-board graphics processor, alleviating the need to purchase a graphics card. This can be a good choice for a cheaper system that is not expected to need the latest and greatest in graphical processing power. Even better, many of these still have a acceptable graphics card slot on the motherboard, allowing it to be upgraded later.
Not all on-board graphics are alike. Some are versions of actual graphics processors, mounted on the motherboard with built-in video RAM, which can give decent performance; others are integrated graphics solutions, which are built into the main chipset of the board itself. These latter have been getting better, and can provide enough performance for standard office tasks, but still fall far behind any of the dedicated solutions.
