Serial ATA
This motherboard comes with a Promise Serial ATA (PDC20375) controller, aiming to provide you an even faster transfer rate of
150 Mbytes/second.
LAN Port
On the strength of RealTek RTL8100BL controller on board, which is an highly-integrated Platform LAN Connect device, it
provides 10/100 Mbps Ethernet for office and home use.
Expansion Slots
Including six 32-bit/33MHz PCI, one CNR and one AGP 8X slots. The
PCI
local bus throughput can be up to 132MB/s. The
Communication & Nectworking Riser (CNR)
slot provided from AK77-8X Max can support CNR interface for a Modem/Audio
card. The
Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
specification provides a new level of video display sophistication and speed. The
AGP video cards support data transfer rate up to 2.1GB/s. As AK77-8X Max includes one AGP expansion slot for a bus
mastering AGP graphic card, For AD and SBA signaling, AK77-8X Max can support 133MHz 2X/4X/8X mode. Of six PCI slots
provided, AK77-8X Max supports five master PCI slots for arbitration and decoding functions and one slave PCI slot.
Memory
With VIA Apollo KT400 chipset, the AK77-8X Max can support
Double-Data-Rate (DDR) RAM
. The DDR RAM interface allows
zero wait state bursting between the RAM and the data buffers at 333/266/200 MHz. The six banks of DDR RAM can be
composed of an arbitrary mixture of 64, 128, 256, 512MB x N DDR RAM and maximum up to 3GB. The AK77-8X Max allows
DDR RAM to run at either synchronous or pseudo-synchronous mode with the host CPU bus frequency (333/266/200MHz).
