2.24 – Installing Add- In Cards

Before installing add-in cards, it is helpful to know if they are fully compatible with your motherboard. For this reason, we have provided the diagrams below showing the most common slots that may appear on your motherboard. Not all of the slots shown will necessarily appear on your motherboard. However, there will be combinations of what you see here.

NOTE

YOU MUST unplug the power supply before performing system hardware changes in order to avoid damaging the board or expansion device.
