Gigabyte K8N51PVMT-9 Socket 939 m-ATX Motherboard Reviewed

pic from AMDZoneAMDZone reviews the Gigabyte K8N51PVMT-9, a micro-ATX form factor socket 939 motherboard based on the NVIDIA® GeForce™ 6150 and NVIDIA nForce™ 430 chipset.

Gigabyte has taken the nForce 430 and GeForce 6150 and enhanced the hardware a bit from Foxconn's attempt largely by including component video outputs, and including a 1X PCI E slot. At the same time however we are disappointed in the lack memory settings in the BIOS. Feature wise the K8N51PVMT-9 packs quite a bit of punch in a small micro ATX form factor. Those looking for a powerful multimedia box particularly with component video output will finally have an nForce option thanks to Gigabyte. However overclockers will want to look elsewhere unless a new BIOS with extra support comes our way. Certainly the K8N51PVMT-9 is one of the finer integrated video motherboards we have ever laid our hands on hardware wise. [AMDZone]

This board could be a great foundation for a multimedia PC, especially for nForce fans.
