I haven't seen much for pre-built. But here's a mini-itx motherboard for AMD
AM2 that has an Nvidia 8200 chipset on it.

I'm running the same chipset with VDPAU and it's working quite well. Should
be able to build quite a small box with a mini-itx board. Add a case, CPU,
and RAM and you're still under $200.
