Lee16 Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Hi, 1. AGI8X VGA Upgradable for 845GV Your Built in Intel graphics card 2.AMR Audio Modem Riser (AMR) is intels specification slots on the motherboard to accommodate low cost sound cards. There not used alot, and arn't likley to anytime soon either as you can get better quality sound from a codec chip on a riser card or even a normal sound card fitted into a PCI slot. 3. PCI Slots Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI slots) is a high-speed connection for devices including SCSI cards, video (graphics) cards, sound cards, modems, video capture cards, network cards etc. People used to put video cards into the Advanced Graphics Port (AGP) slots for better graphics, however latley alot of graphics cards etc have come out that are PCI Express which is way better then AGP, so everyone is once again putting there graphics cards into the PCI slots. Hope this helps --lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anwar Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 Some say that motherboards can use more than two processor how about mine how much can it support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Most motherboards only support 1 CPU. It is rare that a motherboard support 2 CPU's, those are motherboards for workstations and servers. Many motherboards lately support Dual Core which is a CPU with 2 cores on it. 2 CPU's doesnt always benefit you, as it doesnt affect the performance of all applications.

kobrakommander56 Posted December 4, 2005 Share Posted December 4, 2005 Anwar, no offense but take the time to actually google these things instead of wasting our time, i have no problem answering questions but these are so basic that a simple google would answer them. Now to the question, your asrock mobo, definitely has a dialup connection and a ethernet jack 10/100, or possibley 10/100/1000. So thats no problem, and so would the server mobos, but dont worry about them. And the motherboards that have 2 cpu slots are servers, or workstations (and i believe that they are opterons, if not then semprons) so dont waste your time with those types of things, there is a reason people dont have physically two seperate cpus, if things worked that way then a lot of people would have had them already.
