a few months ago, Tom's Hardware set out to make a decent gaming PC for 500 bucks.

Here's the specs

since I can't afford all of them in one go, I'd have to purchase parts in batches, preferably getting something set up that doesn't really do gaming, just basic stuff so an integrated video will have to do.

The problem is, the Gigabyte motherboard they listed doesn't have integrated video.

So my question is, do you guys know of a decent motherboard for gaming that has built in video?

Also, I know that recently video card prices have been dropping

EDIT
I know they suck, I just want to be able to use the computer and then buy the videocard 'bout a month later.

hence I was wondering if you guys can suggest a decent motherboard that has intergrated video that won't affect the gaming experience much...

None, integrated cards suck. You can buy a decent card for $80 (usd).

Agreed, integrated card are worthless for gaming, and they can barely cut it for doing anything else.

The only thing I can say is that the processor you chose is rather crappy for a gaming rig.

And maybe change the 380 Watt power supply - I don't know if that is enough for gaming.
And maybe a UPS

Gentoo

For that processor and graphics card 380 W is enough:

But if you change anything make sure to check that site out and add 50 W to the result.

Also, I know I won't be playing Crysis in this set up, so I know what I'm not getting.
just a handy work PC that does a bit of gaming too
