The board comes with a 4+1 phase digital voltage design which is rated to support
a 140W CPU. It has 1 PCI and 1 PCIe
x1 on board and 2 PCIe x8 slots on board (single card or crossfire, the slots
are hard wired to run at PCIe x8). Behind the slots are Realtek ALC885 8-channel
HD Audio Codec and Marvell 88E8056 PCIE Gigabit LAN controllers. Both north
bridge and south bridge are passively cooled.
On the bottom left corner of the board we can see the Power and reset switch.
Next to it is the debug led. The new SB750 supports 12 USB connectors compliant
with USB2.0 from embedded USB controller (6 connectors at rear panel another 6
with brackets). The SB750 supports S-ATA RAID with 6 S-ATA II ports with up to
300MB/s from chipset with RAID 0,1,0+1,5 support.
To the right is the IDE slot and 4 DIMM slots supporting up to 8GB unbuffered
DDR2-1066.
At the rear panel are PS/2 keyboard connector, HDMI port, Digital and coaxial S/PDIF.
DVI-I, 4 USB, 1 GbE port and 7.1 ch audio ports.
Do take note that the DVI-I does not contain analog output. Thus, if you use a
converter to hook it up to your conventional CRT display, it won't work.
