The Biostar TA690G AM2 motherboard is built on AMD's 690G Northbridge and SB600 Southbridge chipsets, and it supports all Socket AM2 processors from the AMD Sempron to the Athlon64/X2 and FX processors. With AMD's 690G chipsets, it is include ATI Radeon X1250 engine on it. So, using Biostar TA690G AM2, you will gets a good solid computer platform for office applications and the like, without the need to install a stand alone video card on your computer.
