We do n’t normally get down to motherboards around here , mostly because there are oodles of web site who endure for that sort of affair and could tell you the conflict between a resistor and a capacitor ( hint : both respond ill to gunshot ) . The fresh ECS RS480 - M is an exclusion , packing the new ATI RS480 chipset , which mean that this particular motherboard has a ramp up - in Radeon 9600 - class video recording card right on the greenboard . That makes it effectively the fast on - board video solution useable .
Nvidia has been doing quality chipsets for a while , so it ’ll be interesting to see what ATi get to the table . And since this board is from ECS , it ’s wo n’t be that expensive to try out . Plus it has a PCI Express x16 slot , so when the 9600 start to show its old age in a few weeks , you ’ll be able to elevate easily .
