BIOSTAR TForce6100-939 (uATX)

[Audioaficionado]

BIOSTAR TForce6100-939 looks good but there's a rumor that DFI will get in this uATX game. Biostar even stole DFI's colors.

Lots of good stuff like the 6150 NVIDIA nForce 430 for the ones who can wait awhile longer ;)

I smell an HTPC/Lan system. How well does a 6100 work for games?

got one, but havent tried the nvidia card. im using a new x800 xl. its a nice mobo when combined with the aspire x-qpack. northbridge could use a better cooler if your going to game on the intergrated though.

It has better than average onboard graphics but most gamers would put a high-end card on it. Depending on what will fit in the X-QPack case, I'd be partial to at least a 7800GT. I'm not sure if a 7800GTX would fit. You would need the 430 SB to get the GbLAN.

looks like a solid piece of hardware but I really hvae to say that I am so happy with my shuttle that and the fact that it all comes in one nice box and I don't have to do anything but slap the CPU/RAM/Drives its almost relaxing to build

if my x800 xl with the HIS iceq 2 cooler will fit, anything will fit.

Foxconn also has one of these out that looks really interesting that is based on the 6150/nForce430

Im actully really kind of interested in this one. it offers the oc features for a basic system and is quite attractive too heh.
If Dfi puts one out with this combo ill be all over that. but come on... dfi.. give me the same 2 x16 slots. I want a dual graphics solution in a micro case. of course, i suppose if one was willing to run the slower ddr speed, you could use the onboard to power an additional monitor.
There was no mention of this, but typically, onboard graphics limit the use of pc 2700 ddr over pc 3200.
Does yours?

I would think that with a PCI & PCIe bus frequency lock you could OC to your hearts content but my experience with onboad vga is that it limits the OC. Once disabled you can usually go faster. I think that review I linked says the same thing.

I ordered a BIOSTAR TForce6100-939 and a A64 3000+ venice on Friday.
But I'm still not sure about ram.
BloodbathMK is this the ram you have ?
