2.6 Expansion Slots (PCI and AGP Slots) There are 6 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot on K7S8X motherboard. PCI slots: PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI interface. AGP slot: The AGP slot is used to install a graphics card. The ASRock AGP slot has a special locking mechanism which can securely fasten the graphics card inserted. Please do not use 3.3v AGP card on K7S8X's AGP slot! It may cause permanent damage! Installing an expansion card Step 1.
