1 Chapter 1 Introducing the Motherboard Introduction Thank you for choosing the NFORCE3-A motherboard. This motherboard is a high perfor- mance, enhanced function motherboard that supports Socket 754 AMD K8 processors for high-end business or personal desktop markets. The NFORCE3-A motherboard is based on NVIDIA™ NFORCE®3 250, which is a single- chip, highly integrated, high performance HyperTransport peripheral controller, un- matched by any other single chip-device controller. This motherboard supports two DDR modules at 400/333/266/200 MHz operation with up to 2GB of system memory, high resolution graphics via an 5 PCI slots, one AGP 8X slot, 10/100 LAN, USB 2.0, and 6- channel audio. There is an advanced full set of I/O ports in the rear panel, including PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors, COM1, LPT1, four USB ports, one optional LAN port, and audio jacks for microphone, line-in, and line-out. This motherboard is designed in an ATX form factor using a four-layer printed circuit board and measures 295 mm x 205 mm. ™ Introducing the Motherboard
