3. HARDWARE SETUP 3.7.3 Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) This motherboard provides an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) slot to support a new generation of graphics cards with ultra-high memory bandwidth, such as an ASUS 3D graphics accelerator.

H/W SETUP DMA Channels 01 01 01 01 01 01 ® K7M-RM Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) 3.7.4 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called an AMR. Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboard's system chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incredibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another defined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboard's onboard CODEC must be disabled when using a primary AMR. IMPORTANT: The AMR slot of this motherboard shares the same expansion slot as PCI Slot 3. Because of this and its location, the slot can only accept a specially designed AMR card (optional). While a standard AMR card's bracket is to the left of the card (facing the expansion slot), the specially-designed AMR card's bracket is to the right of the card. For availability, see your vendor or dealer. To install the AMR card, face its components towards the serial ports. K7M-RM ® K7M-RM Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot ASUS K7M-RM User's Manual 33

Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot
This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called an AMR.
Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboard’s sys-
tem chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incred-
ibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another de-
fined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary
AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboard’s
onboard CODEC must be disabled when using a primary AMR.
IMPORTANT:
The AMR slot of this motherboard shares the same expansion slot
as PCI Slot 3. Because of this and its location, the slot can only accept a specially
designed AMR card (optional). While a standard AMR card’s bracket is to the left
of the card (facing the expansion slot), the specially-designed AMR card’s bracket
is to the right of the card. For availability, see your vendor or dealer.
