ACR (Advanced Communication Riser) Slot, 1.5.2 AGP (Advanced Graphics Port) Slot

Page 21 highlights

Chapter 1 Motherboard Description 1.5.1 ACR (Advanced Communication Riser) Slot The ACR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture and that defines a hardware scalable riser card interface, which supports audio, network and modem only. 1.5.2 AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) Slot Unlike the mouse ports, keyboard ports and printer ports, this motherboard does not have built in video facilities; and therefore, requires a video card for one of the expansion slots. Your monitor will attach directly to that video card. This motherboard supports video cards for PCI slots, but it is also equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP). An AGP card will take advantage of AGP technology for improved video efficiency and performance, especially with 3D graphics. 1.5.3 CNR (Communication Network Riser) Slot The CNR specification is an open Industry Standard Architecture, and it defines a hardware scalable riser card interface, which supports audio, network and modem only. 1.5.4 PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) Slots This motherboard is equipped with 5 standard PCI slots. PCI stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect, and it is a bus standard for expansion cards and it is designated as 32 bits. 1-16
