Mine was Foxconn A7MX motherboard, AMD Athlon 64 X2 7750 (2.7GHz dual core). 2GB DDR2 (now 4GB).
The mobo has onboard ATI Radeon 2100 graphics which work very well with Windows 7 x64.

Look around the site and select / configure AMD / Intel as you wish.
I've used this company several times with no problems. I've used AMD processors at Home and at work for 10 years with no problems.

I've got a nVidia (separate) video card and they seem to be well supported (legacy and new) by the manufacturer.
In fact I went for nvidia wherever possible - see attached
This hasn't caused any problems on Ubuntu.

Just wondering how does this setup cope with W7 Aero interface?

I bought this laptop recently - it's a HP/Compaq & runs Windows 7.
It doesn't seem desperately fast, although it's certainly not memory limited.
By comparison with a 2 year old Linux PC (2.8GHz dual core, 1GB, 64 bit),
It only takes twice as long to boot up and twice as long to log-on.
I suspect that Windows is not very good at utilising a dual core CPU.
