I know these motherboards are old but if you had a choice which one would you decide to have it doesnt matter if its got onboard graphics or not.

Msi K7N420 or PCChips M848A

Which one would you choose?

Definitely the MSI. It's not just better made, it's also a better performer. The nForce chip was a perfectly viable alternative to the expensive VIA400 and nForce2 boards back in the day, so I'd have no hesitation in having the MSI.
