1 r e t p a h C Chapter 1 Introducing the Motherboard Introduction Thank you for choosing the A990FXM-A motherboard. This motherboard is a high performance, enhanced function motherboard that supports socket for AMD PhenomTM and later desktop processors (socket AM3+) for high-end business or per- sonal desktop markets. The motherboard incorporates the AMD 990FX Northbridge (NB) and SB950 Southbridge (SB) chipsets. The Northbridge supports the HyperTransportTM 3.0 inter- face. The memory controller supports DDR3 memory DIMM frequencies of 2133 (OC)/ 1866/1600/1333*. It supports four DDR3 slots with maximum memory size of 128 GB*. Three PCI Express x16 slots, intended for Graphics Interface, are fully compli- ant to the PCI Express Gen2 (version 2.0). In addition, two PCI Express x1 slots are supported. The SB950 Southbridge supports one PCI slot which is PCI v2.3 compliant. It inte- grates USB 2.0 interface, supporting up to ten USB 2.0 ports (six USB ports and two USB 2.0 headers support additional four USB 2.0 ports). The Southbridge integrates a Serial ATA host controller, supporting six SATA ports with maximum transfer rate up to 6Gb/s each. In addition, the mainboard assembles extra USB3.0 chip, which supports two USB 3.0 ports at rear panel with high speed of 5Gb/s. There is an advanced full set of I/O ports in the rear panel, including one PS/2 mouse and keyboard combo connector, six USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, two LAN ports, one optical SPDIFO port and audio jacks for microphone, line-in and 8-ch line-out. * Due to the limitation of AMD CPU spec, please refer to Memory QVL for more information.
