| Note | (Note 1) Due to Windows 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB. |
| (Note 2) To use the onboard D-Sub, DVI-D, HDMI, and DisplayPortports, you must install an Intel CPU with integrated graphics. | |
| (Note 3) The DVI-D port does not support D-Sub connection by adapter. | |
| (Note 4) You can use only one of the onboard digital graphics ports (e.g. DisplayPort, HDMI, and DVI-D) for output when in the BIOS Setup program or when during the POST screens. | |
| (Note 5) For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is to be installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16 slot. | |
| (Note 6) The PCIEX16 slot operates at up to x4 mode when ATI CrossFireX™ is enabled. | |
| (Note 7) Whether the CPU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the CPU/system cooler you install. | |
