Expansion Slots
The system board is equipped with 1 AGP slot and 6 PCI slots.
Important:
Most PCI cards today are in Master mode and can be
installed anywhere between PCI slot 1 and PCI slot 5. DO NOT
install Master mode PCI cards onto PCI slot 6 because this
slot only supports Slave mode.
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.
