Hi everyones. I will change my mobo this week-end. I went to the
ASUS website under "pick my motherboard" section. They don't
seems to provide any integrated video chipset on their boards. I'm i right?

They have several, each should have a "-VM" at the end of it's model
name.

Actually just the "V" stands for video, but the "VM" is more common
config.

If you are looking for Asus Motherboards with integrated video look for
the motherboards that end in "-VM". Normally with Asus the integrated
video motherbards are "-V" and then "-M" is normally MATX motherboard.
Asus pretty strictly adheres to a kind of coding system in their
motherboard model names.

For instance the A7N8X Is the Nforce2 8X AGP Motherboard. The A7N8X-VM
IS integrated video, MATX. The A7N8X-X is a less expensive version of the
A7N8X motherboard.

The P4P800-VM is an Intel 865 Integrated Video MATX Motherboard. Asus had
a note on their website on a newer motherboard the P4P800S. It appeared
to be a variation and a new chipset slightly different for their previous
chipsets without Dual DDR. Asus seems to be trying to target people
looking for a discount.

Ok...thanks very much for all your replies. Now i think
i see why on the specifications it's said "optional" for
certain components...they offer the "plain" version but
it's possible to buy a board with "optional" LAN-VIDEO...
etc-etc.
