Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)

The board provides the AGP 3.0 interface. The AGP interface can support external AGP slot with AGP 8X/4X and Fast Write Transactions. The AGP Interface Specifi- cation revision 3.0 enhances the functionality of the original AGP Interface Specifi- cation by allowing 8X data transfers (8 data samples per clock) and 1.5 volt (Power supply) operation. Supports Maximum AGP interface bandwidth 2.1GB/s. (1.5 volt AGP Card supports only).

Ultra ATA/66/100

The ICH5/R provides an Ultra ATA/66/100 Bus Master IDE controller. This controller supports Ultra ATA/66/100 protocols which are ideal for supporting demanding applications such as real-time video, multimedia, and a high performance operating system. A new IDE cable is required for Ultra ATA/66/100. This cable is an 80-pin conductor cable, which is backwards compatible with ATA/33 connectors.

Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring enables you to monitor various aspects of the system operation and status. The features include CPU temperature, voltage and fan speed in RPMs.

LAN (Optional)

The motherboard mounts the LAN chipset. It allows the mainboard to connect to a local area network by means of a network hub.
