2. FEATURES Connections 2. FEATURES 2.1.2 Connections • CPU socket: 478-pin surface mount, ZIF socket mPGA478 B. • PCI Expansion Slots: Provides five 32-bit PCI slots, (PCI 2.2 compliant) with no ISA, eliminating bottlenecks and system memory management issues. All PCI slots can support Bus Master PCI cards, such as SCSI or LAN cards. (PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput.) The MB supports Concurrent PCI, which allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master bus to the memory and processor. • AGP Pro Slot: Comes with an Accelerated Graphics Port Pro slot that supports AGP cards for high performance, component level interconnect targeted at 3D graphical applications using a 4X mode bus. The slot is keyed to support only the latest 1.5 volt AGP cards: ASUS V3800 and newer versions. • IDE connectors: Dual-channel bus master IDE connectors support up to four Ultra DMA/100/66, PIO Modes 3 & 4 IDE devices. Both the primary (blue) and secondary (black) connectors are slotted to prevent incorrect insertion of the IDE ribbon cable. • Floppy disk connector: Supports the floppy disk drive ribbon cable. One side of the connector is slotted to prevent incorrect insertion of the floppy disk cable. • CNR Support: A Communication and Networking Riser (CNR) slot provides an interface to support very affordable multichannel audio, V.90 analog modem, Home PNA, 10/100 Ethernet networking, and a USB hub. • USB ports: Four Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports are available for connecting USB devices such as a mouse and PDA. • IrDA: Supports an optional infrared port module for a wireless interface. • Serial ports: Two 9-pin COM1/COM2 ports are for pointing devices or other serial devices. • Parallel port: 25-pin port connects a parallel printer or other devices. • PS/2 mouse port: Green 6-pin connector is for a PS/2 mouse. • PS/2 keyboard port: Purple 6-pin connector is for a PS/2 keyboard. • Onboard LED: Signals AC power is okay. • ATX power connector. Supplies the MB with ATX power. • Microphone jack (optional): Pink jack connects a microphone. • Line In jack (optional): Light blue jack connects a tape player or other audio sources. • Line Out jack (optional): Lime jack connects a headphone or a speaker. • Game/MIDI connector (optional): This connector supports a joystick or a game pad for playing games, and MIDI devices.
