@ 2007/02/01Asus has a new motherboard based on the mobile 690G chipset, cool runnings:
"The M2A-VM motherboard comes with a 'AMD 690G' North Bridge and old acquaintance ATI SB600 South Bridge chips. The official name of integrated graphics inside 690G is 'ATi Radeon X1250', supporting sharing of max. 256MB of system memory. You can have maximum of 8GB of system memory (if you use 2GB DIMMs), but realistically speaking, you should be targeting as fast memory as possible, since integrated graphics needs bandwidth the most.
