Expansion Slots
The system board is equipped with 3 dedicated PCI slots and 1
shared PCI/CNR slot. CNR (Communication and Networking Riser)
is an interface that can support multi-channel audio, V.90 analog
modem, phone-line based networking or 10/100 Ethernet based
networking riser board.
Onboard Graphics Features
Graphics memory
- Shares 1MB of the system memory. This is fixed regardless of

nology. This freely changes in size because graphics memory is
allocated from the system memory according to current
needs.
