Please refer "Memory Support List" for memory support information. \r\n\r\n(Note 1)Based on standard PC architecture, a certain amount of memory is reserved for system usage and therefore the actual memory size is less than the stated amount. For example, 4 GB of memory size will instead be shown as 3. xx GB during system startup. \r\n(Note 2)Some memory configurations will result in memory frequency being reduced from the original frequency. \r\nAudio Realtek ALC888 codec \r\nHigh Definition Audio \r\n2/4/5. 1/7. 1-channel \r\nSupport for S/PDIF In/Out \r\nSupport for CD In \r\n\r\nLAN RTL 8111B chip (10/100/1000 Mbit) \r\n\r\nExpansion Slots 1 x PCI Express x16 slot \r\n3 x PCI Express x1 slots \r\n3 x PCI slots \r\n\r\nStorage Interface South Bridge: \r\n1 x IDE connector supporting ATA-100/66/33 and up to 2 IDE devices \r\n4 x SATA 3Gb/s connectors supporting up to 4 SATA 3Gb/s devices \r\niTE IT8718 chip: \r\n1 x floppy disk drive connector supporting up to 1 floppy disk drive \r\n\r\nUSB Integrated in the South Bridge \r\nUp to 8 USB 2. 0/1. 1 ports (4 on the back panel, 4 via the USB brackets connected to the internal USB headers) \r\n\r\nInternal I/O Connectors 1 x 24-pin ATX main power connector \r\n1 x 4-pin ATX 12V power connector \r\n1 x floppy disk drive connector \r\n1 x IDE connector \r\n4 x SATA 3Gb/s connectors \r\n1 x CPU fan header \r\n2 x system fan headers \r\n1 x power fan header \r\n1 x front panel header \r\n1 x front panel audio header \r\n1 x CD In connector \r\n1 x S/PDIF In header \r\n1 x S/PDIF Out header \r\n2 x USB 2. 0/1. 1 headers \r\n1 x chassis intrusion header \r\n1 x power LED header \r\n\r\nBack Panel Connectors 1 x PS/2 keyboard port Connectors \r\n1 x PS/2 mouse port \r\n1 x parallel port \r\n1 x serial port \r\n4 x USB 2. 0/1. 1 ports \r\n1 x RJ-45 port \r\n6 x audio jacks (Center/Subwoofer Speaker Out/Rear Speaker Out/Side Speaker Out/Line In/Line Out/Microphone) \r\n\r\nI/O Controller iTE IT8718 chip \r\n\r\nH/W Monitoring System voltage detection \r\nCPU/System temperature detection \r\nCPU/System/Power fan speed detection \r\nCPU overheating warning \r\nCPU/System/Power fan fail warning \r\nCPU fan speed control \r\n\r\nBIOS 1 x 4 Mbit flash \r\nUse of licensed AWARD BIOS \r\nPnP 1. 0a, DMI 2. 0, SM BIOS 2. 3, ACPI 1. 0b \r\n\r\nUnique Features Support for @BIOS \r\nSupport for Download Center \r\nSupport for Q-Flash \r\nSupport for EasyTune (Note 3) \r\nSupport for Xpress Install \r\nSupport for Xpress Recovery2 \r\nSupport for Virtual Dual BIOS \r\n(Note 3)Available functions in Easytune may differ by motherboard model. \r\nBundle Software Norton Internet Security (OEM version) \r\n\r\nOperating System Support for Microsoft®Windows®Vista/XP/2000 \r\n\r\nForm Factor ATX Form Factor; 30. 5cm x 21. 0cm \r\n\r\n
