What info for motherboard you need? Some command's output?
I don't know the model or company - it's laptop.

Ah, no, I'm specifically looking for a desktop mobo. With a strong preference for one with PCIe slots which I can add a video card to.

The goal is a low-power (thus quiet) desktop for my kids that does well at 3D and video playback (i.e., xv support). I'm thinking something passively cooled in the NVIDIA 7300 range. The desktop form factor would also allow for cheaper RAM and 3.5" hard optical drives.


Hi Ron,

I missed the first part of the thread, so I'm assuming you have a Turion64 of some flavour too. I am looking for this too, and all I have found so far, was an out-of-production Albatron Mini-ITX board. Mine is a single core, so you may have a little more luck, but there are very few manufacturers who specify Turion64(_x2) compatibility, even if the boards are compatible.

This is the newer (AM2) version of the one I was thinking of:

Not quite what you're looking for but as close as I've been able to get to it.
