The friend I've written about also might need my old RAM from the ASRock mobo and maybe the Delock PCI card and the complete ASUS M2A-VM HDMI for Windows multimedia. If so, a gfx card or a complete new board is affordable or an exchangable value. I only found an ASUS M2N-VM SE - GeForce 6100 50,00 EUR at a dealer I don't know, see http://www.comtech.de/product_info.php?ref=19&pID=214041&seo=ASUS-M2N-VM-SE,-nForce-430,-Sockel-AM2. I asked myself: Is it fine with Linux? Does it support AMDs fan speed control? If my new RAMs won't be fine with this board, that won't be such a big problem. I'll look out for gfx cards, e.g. an ASUS EN6200LE TC256/TD - Grafikadapter - GF 6200LE TC from a dealer I don't know, see http://www.hardwarefreak.de/product_info.php/info/p202080_ASUS-EN6200LE-TC256-TD---Grafikadapter---GF-6200LE-TC-mit-256-MB.html?refID=2, is about 30,00 EUR, here I don't know the exact delivery charge, but it won't be more than 10,00 EUR and the card is about 24,00 EUR. It should be able to get a cheap NVidia card, that as far as possible is compatible to Linux and especially with 64 Studio.
