Introduction

Our high-performance MXEA motherboard features features support for the latest Intel® processors and up to 8GB of dual-channel DDR2 memory. 10 USB, 6 SATA, and 2 FireWire ports provide plenty of I/O.

Put two video cards in the PCI Express 2.0 expansion slots; NVIDIA® 3-way SLI technology runs them in parallel to handle your most graphics-intensive applications. (Also includes an x16 PCI Express 1.0 slot.)

There is a x1 PCIe slot and two standard PCI slots for your modem, LAN, or other expansion cards.
