I need to build a few ?office? type pc?s, the most important for me is that they are able to run raid 1 (despite the price of course). Looking what is available on the market my choice of chipset would be Nvidia® GF6150/NF430. It has all I need (RAID, DVI) and it is cost affective when you build few pc?s. I have tried the Asus M2NPV-VM, but I ran into multiple issues (stability in between using recommended RAM). I am not a novice in building pc?s but that is first time I am trying some kind of high integrated motherboard. Needles to say I return my motherboard and now I am looking in Abit NF-M2 nView. That board does not have all the bells and whistles of the previous one, but as I said I have no need of anything except disk mirroring and DVI output.

Anyone can share some input on that board, or can recommend some similar system?
Or.. I should just scratch the idea of building system on that chipset (or similar with the integrated graphics) and go into something with the pci express based graphics (though that would increase the cost I would like to avoid)
.
Btw, the whole specs at the moment would be
Abit NF-M2 nView
ADM dual core 3800
1 GB RAM
2x80GB serial ata HD?s
