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 increase the motherboard's capabili-
ties by adding hardware that performs tasks that are not part of the basic system.
The AGP slot is used to install a graphics adapter that supports the 4X AGP
AGP Slot
specification. It is AGP 2.0 compliant and 1.5V I/O interface.
This motherboard is equipped with three standard PCI slots. PCI stands for
PCI Slots
Peripheral Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for expansion
cards, which for the most part, is a supplement of the older ISA bus standard.
The PCI slots on this board are PCI v2.2 compliant.

Before installing an add-on card, check the documentation for the card
