Graphics
This motherboard includes an AGP slot that provides eight
times the bandwidth of the original AGP specification. The
AGP 3.0 (8X AGP) offers a significant increase in performance
along with feature enhancements to AGP2.0. This interface
represents the natural evolution from the existing AGP to meet
the ever-increasing demands placed on the graphic interfaces
within the workstation and desktop environments.
