    1* PCIe x16 & 1* PCIe x1 Gen2.0 slots
    PCI Express Gen2.0 technology doubles the available aggregate bandwidth between PCIe Generation 2 cards and the motherboard. This means a Gen2.0 16-lane (x16) link can provide up to 16GB/s of bandwidth, 8GB/s in each direction.  PCIe Gen2.0 is backwards compatible, and so existing PCIe “Gen1” cards can be plugged into Gen2.0 slots.

    ATA133 controller to support legacy devices
     Total16* USB2.0 (8 external) for multiple USB devices

    Force Reset.gif Simply rebooting after applying new OC settings can cause the system to fail because the hardware has not been reset properly. But with one press of the Force Reset button, your system will not only re-boot, but also re-tune itself! This button triggers the CPU, memory controller and chipset to re-initialize, running hardware checks and timing algorithms before reloading with your new overclocking settings. This reduces instances of failed re-boots after implementing OC settings.
