Available MicroATX Motherboards Based on GeForce 6150 and Other Equivalent Chipsets  
 
A good starting place to find GeForce 6150 boards and compare them is NewEgg: NVIDIA GeForce 6150.  
 
Socket 939 GeForce 6150 Boards  
 
 
ASUS A8N-VM CSM (Global site) or ASUS A8N-VM CSM (USA site)  
 
This board was the earliest GeForce 6150 board. Consequently it was once very popular. However it lost its popularity quickly (at least in this forum) because of:  
 
 
Numerous problems, BIOS-related or non BIOS-related  
 
Poor overclockability  
 
Audio is 5.1 channels and the driver is ASUS proprietary (Windows only).  
 
Poor accessories (it comes with only an IEEE1394 bracket.)
 
The ASUS board seems to have been designed for business users:  
 
 
CSM = "Corporate Stable Model"
 
That explains the last three weak points.  
 
 
Foxconn 6150K8MA-8EKRS (Global site) or Foxconn 6150K8MA-8EKRS (USA site)  
 
This board is popular only among overclockers because of the lack of onboard DVI, poor audio (AC'97) and poor accessories (only an S-Video bracket).  
 
 
GIGABYTE GA-K8N51PVMT-9 (Global site) or GIGABYTE GA-K8N51PVMT-9 (USA site)  
 
This board has good overclocking options, but seems to be a lemon according to many user reviews.  
 
 
MSI K8NGM2-FID (Global site) or MSI K8NGM2-FID (USA site)  
 
This board was released a month later than the ASUS board, but gained popularity quickly because of:  
 
 
Almost problem-free  
 
Good overclockability  
 
Rich accessories (it comes with a TV-out bracket, an audio-out/SPDIF bracket and a USB bracket.)
 
MSI K8NGM2H-FID (Japanese site) is a variant of K8NGM2-FID that complies with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive).  
 
By the way, the naming rule is:  
 
 
K8 = "Athlon 64"  
 
N = "NVIDIA chipset based"  
 
G = "Integrated graphics processor"  
 
M = "microATX"  
 
2 = "Dual channel memory" (= Socket 939/AM2, not Socket 754; this is my guess from the Socket 754 board K8NGM-V)  
 
F = "Gigabit LAN" (F perhaps indicates "Fast", although "Fast Ethernet" usually means 100Mb LAN.)  
 
I = "IEEE1394"  
 
D = "DVI" (this is also my guess)
 
There are also a bunch of nVIDIA Business Platform certified GeForce 6150 boards for business users. I am not sure why these motherboards are sold as a retail package. They are suitable for system builders.  
 
 
ASUS A8N-VM CSM/NBP (Global site) or ASUS A8N-VM CSM/NBP (USA site)  
 
 
NBP = "nVIDIA Business Platform"
 
 
Foxconn 6150BK8MC-KRSH (USA site)  
 
 
GIGABYTE GA-K8N51PVM9-RH (Global site) or GIGABYTE GA-K8N51PVM9-RH (USA site)  
 
 
MSI K8NGM2-NBP (Global site) or MSI K8NGM2-NBP (USA site)  
 
The differences from K8NGM2-FID are:  
 
 
No onboard TV out connector  
 
No TV out bracket  
 
No IEEE1394  
 
Smaller SB heatsink  
 
nVIDIA Business Platform certified  
 
RoHS/WEEE compliant (the letter "H" printed on the motherboard indicates it.)  
 
AMD Commercial Stable Image Platform  
 
TPM (Trusted Platform Module), that is, comes with a security chip.
