8
Expansion Slots
The system board is equipped with 1 AGP slot, 3 PCI slots (1
shared with CNR slot) and 1 CNR slot.
AGP is an interface designed to support high performance 3D
graphics cards. It utilizes a dedicated pipeline to access system
memory for texturing, z-buffering and alpha blending. The universal
AGP slot supports AGP 2x with up to 533MB/sec. bandwidth and
AGP 4x with up to 1066MB/sec . bandwidth for 3D graphics
applications. AGP in this system board will deliver faster and better
graphics to your PC.
CNR (Communication and Networking Riser) is an interface that can
support multi-channel audio and V.90 analog modem.
