M2A-VM is a better than M2N-MX because it has 690 Chipset and yes it will also support ur nVidia card too!

plz check the image i have attached an d reply to the problem.........................:neutral: urgent
 
dear .... neither of these boards have onboard grfx memory .... the memory u r talking about is the amount of graphics memory which is being shared from ur RAM .....u can change amount of grfx memory from BIOS SETUP. as far as i knw M2N MX can share upto 128/256 MB from system RAM ... where as M2A VM can share upto 1 GB of RAM from system RAM (which is certainly nt recommended) as grfx memory. if have 1 GB RAM and share 128 for grfx from it .. then Grfx memory will show 128 MB ... and system RAM becoms 896 MB (1024-128). Hope u got it now.

Yeah but there are several low end graphics card which also shows onboard 1 GB memery...but they are actually shared memory.
And yes that is your onboard graphics memory which u have shown in pic.

Some of the motherboards can go upto 1 GB in BIOS but that doesn't mean they can play CRISIS. Its SHARED buddy!
U should have dedicated GPU to play games and to run VISTA....ultimate.

On a quest for knowledge!
yes my Nvidia Geforce 7300GS has a technology called "TURBOCACHE" and it means that it uses upto 512MB of RAM if needed BUT you MUST have at LEAST 1GB of system ram to start with- As I have 2GB(DDRII) of system ram anyway, then It's not an issue I need worry about!!

u dnt need 2 time n again compare ur config vid ur frndz.

the Asus M2A-VM is a gud choice, it has HD video, even though therz no HDMI port (u really dnt plan 2 use it, eh?)
i'll even suggest the
GIGABYTE GA-M68SM-S2 AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 7025 ATX AMD Motherboard.
bcuz its cheaper,
it has the nvidia 7000 gfx chipset,
its ATX...big size, better airflow..
has a DVI port, (4 LCDz)
has a firewire port (4 digicams n stuff)

other option is
ASUS M2N-VM DVI AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 7050PV Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

and dont 4get 2 ask for a Processor + Mobo Combo to get best prices in AMD.
