CUC2000 Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)

WARNING! If you are using an old AGP 2X card (which does not have a retention notch), make sure that the card’s connector pins are firmly seated between the 20-pin and 28-pin bays of the AGP Pro slot. DO NOT allow any of the card’s connectors to shift into the 20-pin bay. Otherwise, the card and the slot may be damaged or burnt.

WARNING! Make sure that you unplug your power supply when adding or removing an AGP card, an AMR or any other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to both your motherboard and expansion cards (see 3.3 Hardware Setup Procedure for more information).

3.7.4 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot

This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called anAMR. 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 (optional) must be disabled when using a primary AMR.

NOTE: An AMR is not included with this motherboard.
