Frequently Asked Questions:
l Do I need to install a VGA card?
l Do I also need to install a sound card?
The answer is NO to both questions above, since, for your
convenience, the SY-5SSM or SY-5SSM/5 Motherboard already
features one built-in VGA port and three built-in audio-stereo ports
(Line-out, Line-in, Microphone).
Notice: If you plan on using the onboard VGA and intend to install
only one DRAM memory module, then this single DRAM must be
installed in bank DIMM1.
l What kind of speaker can connect to "Line-out" port?
This Motherboard requires a speaker with built-in amplifier to
generate proper output sound volume.
