Introduction
8
Expansion Slots
The system board is equipped with 1 AGP slot, 2 dedicated PCI
slots and 1 shared PCI/CNR slot.
The AGP slot only supports 1.5V AGP 4x (1066MB/sec. bandwidth)
add-in cards. AGP is an interface designed to support high
performance 3D graphics cards for 3D graphics applications. It
handles large amounts of graphics data with the following features:
Pipelined memory read and write operations that hide memory
access latency.
Demultiplexing of address and data on the bus for nearly 100
percent efficiency.
CNR (Communication and Networking Riser) is an interface that
supports multi-channel audio, V.90 analog modem, phone-line based
networking or 10/100 Ethernet based networking riser board.
