AMD AM2 Digital Home - ASUS M2NPV-VM Motherboard Review

October 18th 2006 | nForce 500

The ASUS M2NPV-VM from ASUS is designed to take on the Digital Home on the K8 front on the AMD Live! platform. Paired with nVidia’s GeForce 6150 chipset, this baby is a feature packed setup.

Added to this is the fact that the GeForce 6150’s onboard graphics controller can be enabled at the same time a PCI Express graphics card is installed to give multiple monitor support. This is really a nice addition as some large TV’s coming out have the need to run two DVI ports to get the screen image up and working nicely. Added to this, GeForce 6150 supports DirectX 9 with Shader Model 3.0 which means it will work just fine with the fancy Aero interface in the upcoming Windows Vista OS.
