2. Asus A8N-VM CSM: Built-in TV support
This Asus motherboard is based on the new Nvidia Geforce 6150 chipset, which makes an optional TV connection available. The onboard graphics from the Nvidia chipsets may also be connected to a monitor using either a D-Sub (analog VGA) or DVI port. To enable S-Video and Composite Video ports you must use a special adapter that isn't yet bundled with the A8N-VM CSM in the retail package. This will cost about $25 at most retail outlets.
