Chapter 1: Product introduction

PCI Express™ interface

The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect

technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point

serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by

carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible

with existing PCI specifications. See page 1-18 for details.

add style to your system with customizable boot logos. See page 2-33 for
