On Board Grafix Help please

Hello,
Hopefully someone can help. I'm upgrading to a new MB and I currently need a screen resolution of 1680 * 1050. I'm using a Radeon 9550 through the AGP slot on my current MB, however all the new socket 775 MBs don't have an AGP slot and my budget won't stretch to a new Grafix card.
Does anyone know of a resource which will tell me if on-board grafix on a certain board could give me the screen resolution I'm after?
Cheers

You can get a gfx card for as little as £20, it might work out cheaper to buy a cheap motherboard and gfx card than buying a more expensive motherboard with on board graphics.
Having said that, almost all current on board gfx should be able to handle 1680x1050 2D with ease.poppy100
