I've been happily (for the most part...lol) running a MSI 880G-E45 with AMD Phenom II X6 for well over a year now.
Here is a link to the MSI page => http://www.msi.com/product/mb/880GE45.html#hero-overview
The board has built-in VGA, which SNAP seems to support
Some details pertinent to the PCI/slot discussion:
• 1 PCI Express x16 slot with x16 operation (PCI Express Bus SPEC V2.0 compliant)
• 3 PCI EXpress x1 slots
• 2 PCI slots, support 3.3V/ 5V PCI bus Interface
I use a 3Com NIC card, so no experience with the on-board NIC...but sound is fine otherwise.
