Supports (2) 16 bit ISA slots, (5) 32 bit PCI slots, (1) AGP slot and provides (2) independent high performance PCI IDE interfaces capable of supporting PIO Mode 3/4 and Ultra DMA 33 devices. The BX3 supports (5) PCI Bus Master slots and a jumperless PCI INT# control scheme which reduces configuration confusion when plugging in PCI card(s).
Features • BX3 utilizes a Lithium battery which provides environmental protection and longer battery life. • Supports the Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector. The onboard PIIX4E chip provides the means for connecting PC peripherals such as; keyboards, joysticks, telephones, and modems.
