3.7.4 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot
This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called an AMR.
Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboards sys-
tem chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incred-
ibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another de-
fined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary
AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboards
onboard CODEC (optional) must be disabled when using a primary AMR.
NOTE: An AMR is not included with this motherboard.

K7V Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot
CAUTION! The AGP Pro slot is shipped with a safety tab on the 20-pin bay for
use with AGP cards without a retention notch. DO NOT remove this tab if you
will be using such cards; removing may cause these cards to shift, which may
cause damage to your card, slot, and motherboard. Remove
ONLY when you will be using an AGP Pro card. Use a rigid tip,
such as a pen tip, to dislodge and remove the tab from the bay.
