Installing the Motherboard

Installing Add-on Cards

The slots on this motherboard are designed to hold expansion cards and connect them
to the system bus. Expansion slots are a means of adding or enhancing the
motherboard’s features and capabilities. With these efficient facilities, you can in-
crease the motherboard’s capabilities by adding hardware that performs tasks that are
not part of the basic system.

Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for
the card carefully. If the card is not Plug and Play, you may
have to manually configure the card before installation.

Expansion Slots

The PCI Express x1 slots are fully compliant to the PCI Ex-
press Base Specification revision 2.0.

PCIE1~3 Slots

PCIEX16 Slot

The PCI Express x16 slot is used to install an external PCI
Express graphics card that is fully compliant to the PCI Express
Base Specification revision 2.0.
