Expansion Slots
• 1 AGP slot
• 5 PCI slots
AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port)
The AGP slot only supports 1.5V AGP 4x (1066MB/sec. band-
width) add-in cards. AGP is an interface designed to support high
performance 3D graphics cards for 3D graphics applications. It
handles large amounts of graphics data with the following fea-
tures:
• Pipelined memory read and write operations that hide
memory access latency.
• Demultiplexing of address and data on the bus for nearly 100
percent efficiency.
Onboard Audio Features
• 16-bit stereo full-duplex codec with independent variable sam-
pling rate
• High quality differential CD input
• True stereo line level outputs
• 6-channel audio output
Onboard LAN Features (NB78-BL/B only)
• Uses Realtek RTL8100C fast ethernet controller
• Integrated IEEE 802.3, 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX compatible
PHY
• 32-bit PCI master interface
• Integrated power management functions
• Full duplex support at both 10 and 100 Mbps
• Supports IEEE 802.3u auto-negotiation
• Supports wire for management
Compatibility
• PCI 2.2 and AC ’97 compliant
• Intel AGP version 2.0
