MicroATX motherboards

I'm considering the following MBs and would appreciate any comments from
people who have used them.

MSI K8MM-ILSR. Uses a VIA K8M800 chipset

Aopen MK89-L. Uses an nforce 3 150 chipset

Gigabyte GA-K8S760M. Uses an SIS760M chipset

The CPU is an AMD 64 +3200 2.2 Ghz.

The OS will be Win64 EE, perhaps dual booting with Win 2k depending on how
well Win64 EE works with the apps I want to run.

Any experience you would like to share would be greatly appreciated.

Integrated video.

NO intergrated video. Older slower HF3 150 chipset.

Gigabyte GA-K8S760M. Uses an SIS760M chipset

Integrated video.

Assuming you want integrated video, I'd get the SIS board. Otherwise, I
wouldn't get any of these. Do you have to have a micro atx board? Probably
the best chipset to date is the nforce3-250. And these ATX boards start at
$85 (without integrated video).

I already have a Micro atx case. I need a small footprint for this computer.
