Have chance to buy the system with the following specs. for $900 along
with a 19" flat for $200. Have heard that graphics on mother board is
not a good thing, but what do I know. Any suggestions or thought is
greatly appreciated.

The processor has an 800mhz FSB but the only ram supported is 333mhz DDR
(which is really 166 DDR). The CPU has the capability of working with
400mhz DDR (200 ddr) so the CPU is not being used to its fullest extent.
That would be my only complaint.

You're saying it doesn't have two-bank memory? That would be my guess, which
does make it a bad fit for the CPU.

I am not sure. I bought a Computer with a GA-8S650GXM Motherboard. Has a
Pentium 4 2.5 with 512DDR RAM (2 slots available). I got a GeForce4 MX440
also. I had no problem with it. As long as you got the speed, an AGP slot,
than I say your doing well.
