1: Introduction
VGA
This mainboard includes a 4xAGP slot that provides eight
times the bandwidth of the original AGP specification.
AGP technology provides a direct connection between the
graphics sub-system and memory so that the graphics do
not have to compete for processor time with other devices
on the PCI bus.
AC 97 Audio Codec
The AC 97 Audio codec is compliant with the AC 97 2.2
specification, and supports 18-bit ADC (Analog Digital
Converter) and DAC (Digital Analog Converter) resolution
as well as 18-bit stereo full-duplex codec with independent
and variable sampling rates. Further features include
support for four analog line-level stereo inputs.
Expansion Options
The mainboard comes with the following expansion options:
Four 32-bit PCI slots capable of Ultra DMA bus mastering
with transfer rates of 33/66/100 MB/sec
An 4xAGP slot
A CNR (Communications and Networking Riser) slot
