Double-check the processor+gpu - especially if you're planning on using Linux with it.

I have a similar motherboard: Cpuinfo say:

model name      : AMD A6-3500 APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics

and it isn't yet supported by the opensource (nor closed source when I
last checked) drivers. Works fine as a dumb framebuffer, but that's it.
