Expansion Slots
Including five 32-bit/33MHz PCI and one AGP 8X slot which supports AGP cards. The PCI local bus throughput can be up to
132MB/s. The Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)
specification provides a new level of video display sophistication and speed
with data transfer rate up to 2.1GB/s.
Memory
With NVIDIA nForce™2 chipsets, the AK79G-V/AK79G-VN/AK79D-1394/AK79G-1394 supports 128-bit dual channel
Double-Data-Rate (DDR) RAM
. The DDR RAM interface allows zero wait state bursting between the SDRAM and the data
buffers at 333/266/200MHz. The three slots of DDR RAM can be composed of an arbitrary mixture of 64, 128, 256, 512MB or
1GB DDR RAM and maximum up to 3GB. The AK79G-V/AK79G-VN/AK79D-1394/AK79G-1394 allows DDR RAM to run at either
synchronous or pseudo-synchronous mode with the host CPU bus frequency (400/333/266MHz)(With onboard VGA enabling,
the memory can only run maximum up to 333MHz).
Audio (APU and NVIDIA SoundStorm and AC97 CODEC)
This motherboard comes with NForce Audio Processing Unit (APU) and NVIDIA SoundStorm Compatible
(AK79D-1394/AK79G-1394 only), and the AC97
CODEC RealTek ALC650 chip (AK79G-V/AK79G-VN only).
LAN Port (for AK79G-VN, AK79G-1394 and AK79D-1394)
LAN MAC embedded in nForce2 chipsets and a RealTek RTL8201BL PHY onboard (except AK79G-V), which support
10/100Mbps BaseT Fast Ethernet and is IEEE802.3 compliant.
