it has 4 fan headers which we find on the low side. So yeah, the board has many features and hosts other unusual features missing is a UEFI (GUI BIOS), for the freaks. (All PCI Express slots conform to the PCI Express 2.0 standard.) 2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x4 (PCIEX4_1, PCIEX4_2).2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x8 (PCIEX8_1, PCIEX8_2) (Note 4).

2 x PCI Express x16 slots, running at x16 (PCIEX16_1, PCIEX16_2) (Note 3).Slot connectivity wise you'll spot six PCI Express x16 slots and one PCi slot. We would like to see some more development done on the audio side of motherboards and move away from Realtek. 0 Comments Hello, Ive been experiencing some problems with the Etron USB 3.0 drivers that came with my ASRock motherboard (990FX Fatal1ty Killer). Audio is handled by Realtek's 889 codec allowing 8 channels of audio, pretty much the standard these days on motherboards. On the lower side we see a bunch of connectors for addition USB ports etc, also audio headers. Gigabyte makes use of 2 x Etron EJ168 chips which allow Up to 4 USB 3.0/2.0 ports (2 ports on the back panel, 2 ports available through the internal USB header). Connect say a USB 3.0 bracket and you gain another two USB 3.0 ports. Here you can connect extra brackets or other USB3.0 connector solutions. The connector here in the right/middle is the new form factor USB 3.0 internal header. In the middle an additional ATX4P to power a HDD/SSD from. In addition to the regular SATA III ports, colored in grey are two additional SATA 3 (6 GBit) ports. The motherboard features six right-angle SATA 6G ports which are supplied by the chipset and they support AHCI and RAID 0/1/5/10. Let's move onwards to the left side where we stumble into a bunch of SATA connectors and zoom in a little.
