Chapter 2 Installation Instructions

Expansion Slots

This motherboard includes four 32-bit Master PCI bus slots, two PCI Express x1

slots, and one PCI Express x16 slot.

PCI Slots

The expansion card can be installed in the PCI slot. When you install or take out

such card, you must make sure that the power plug has been pulled out.

Please read carefully the instructions provided for such card, and install and set

the necessary hardware and software for such card, such as the jumper or

BIOS setup.

PCI Express Slots

PCI Express will offer the following design advantages over the PCI and AGP

interface:

-Compatible with existing PCI drivers and software and Operating Systems.

-High Bandwidth per Pin. Low overhead. Low latency.

-PCI Express supports a raw bit-rate of 2.5 Gb/s on the data pins. This

results in a real bandwidth per pair of 250 MB/s.

-A point to point connection, allows each device to have a dedicated connec-

tion without sharing bandwidth.

-Ability to comprehend different data structure.

-Low power consumption and power management features.

PCI Express will take two forms, x16 and x1 PCI Express slots. Whereas the x16

slot is reserved for graphic/video cards, the x1 slots are designed to accommo-

date less bandwidth-intensive cards, such as a modem or LAN card.

The difference in bandwidth between the x16 and x1 slots are not able to be

sure, with the x16 slot pushing 4GB/sec (8GB/sec concurrent) of bandwidth,

and the x1 PCI Express slot offering 250MB/sec.

If a performance graphics card was installed into x16 PCI

Express slot, 2X12 pin power supply was strongly recom-

mended since that card may draw 75W power.
