The one remaining nforce based builtin you're thinking of is the 
A7N8X-VM400, which has a geforce 4 MX builtin.  I think you can 
configure how much ram the video takes from system ram.  I've sold 
several of the a7n with video boards and they've been pretty solid - 
flakier than non-integrated, but reasonably solid.  Of course, you're 
getting what you pay for in this arena as in most others hardware related...

Cheers,
