Chapter1 Motherboard Description
1-15
1.5.1 AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Slot
Unlike the mouse ports, keyboard ports and printer ports this motherboard does
not have built in video facilities and therefore requires a video card for one of the
expansion slots. Your monitor will attach directly to that video card. This
motherboard supports video cards for PCI and ISA slots but is also equipped with
an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP). An AGP card will take advantage of AGP
technology for improved video efficiency and performance, especially with 3D
graphics.
1.5.2 CNR (Communication Network Riser) Slot
(Slave only)
The CNR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture and that defines
a hardware scalable riser card interface, which supports audio, network and
modem only.
1.5.3 PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect)
Slots
This motherboard is equipped with 6 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for Peripheral
Component Interconnect and is a bus standard for expansion cards, which has, for
the most part, supplanted the older ISA bus standard. This PCI slot is designated
as 32 bit.
