I can't find anywhere in the description if the board is PCI-E or AGP................ I need it to be PCI-E for my GT 640 to fit. Also, can I install a 4 X 2GB RAM kit in it, is it quad channel?

It has a PCI-E 16x slot. I think it's like revision 1.0 so it won't run very fast, but it should work. It has 4 RAM slots? I don't know about channels on this board, but I think i got it to run with two unmatched pairs of 2GB RAM, totaling 8GB. Here is the manual:https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share?s=nwl9NMVLTEMu3Daqdv5mEI

It is PCI-E.....ram is dependent on operating system 32 bit allows 4 gb of ram....64 bit allows 32gb ram

It is not AGP. I have two of these boards. One running Fedora 19 and One running Windows XP. I used NVidia 8600 GTS and 8800, can't remember the letters on the 8800.On the ram it says you can. I did not do it. I have 4 X 1GB in both machines. Board has multiple speeds. On one board I am running DDR2 667 the other is DDR2 800.It definitely is not quad channel. It may be dual channel but I cannot tell you that. I used the cheapest generic 4 x 1GB memory I could find.

Ok it has 3 PCI Express x1 connectors and a PCI Express x 16 Graphics connector and you can try the 4 2GB it should work because 8GB is the max it can take so yes

i have a hd 5450 on my board which is a ddr3 pci-e card it ya up 8 gigs of ddr2 800

Nope, pci-e only. Additionally, I don't think you could find an adapter to go with this, AGP has been depreciated since about 2008.

Graphics Card = NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M GDDR3 (2.0GB) w/ Optimus Technology. Not sure why Amazon doesn't have this listed as a bullet point on the product description, but we'll look into and see if we can get it updated. Thanks! - XOTIC PC.

You probably do need to update the BIOS info. I had to do it in my HP computer to tell it that was direct the video feed to the AGP card slot now in use and not the video hardware installed on the computer itself.

Yes, there is one PCIe-x16 slot available, which is what is recommended for the GTX 960.

I see your model has integrated graphics. But, you may also have an expansion slot for a VGA card. It needs to be a PCIe slot the box even says that is a x16 and it will support PCI express 2.0. It does include 2 low profile brackets too. Look at the picture of where the card is inserted on to the motherboard and see if you have the right slot.

I read on wikipedia that PCI-E 1.0 and 2.0 were backwards compatable. Only in "very rare cases" would they not work together. I, like you, am planning on getting this as an upgrade from the 8600 GTS.

Yes this will fit on your motherboard on either one of your PCI-E 1x slots or one of your PCI-E 16x slots. Please be sure to view manufactures website if you are using Windows 8 as there have been reviews on other sites (Newegg.com for example) that mention the drivers disk that comes with it does not work/well with windows 8 or 8.1. I used Windows 7 x64 bit and it worked fine.

Yes a PCI-E x1 card will work in the PCI-E x16 slot on this motherboard. You will just be utilizing the first 18 pins: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Pinout

Yeah, it should be as PCI-e 3.0 is backwards compatible to PCI-e 2.0 which this motherboard has. You just will be limited by the lower bandwidth associated with PCI-e 2.0 due to the motherboard's shortcomings in this regard.

No. Its PCI not pci-e. The connectors are different drspitecthe similar name.

Not sure, I do know this board has TONS of problems, way beyond Firmware. I have been a huge EVGA fan for many years, but this board changed all that. I would not consider this board at all. I returned the one I ordered and installed after having multiple severe problems. One problem was almost none of the USB ports worked, and the ones that did were flakey. These problems were not minor and if you read through user reviews you will see similar complaints. I ended up ordering and installing this board which has worked flawlessly (see link). I have an Intel i7-3930K with a single GTX690 in it and it's a fantatic gaming rig. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0064L8UJM/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I have no idea. I looked through all the manuals, etc. that came with the board. From what I can tell it depends on the sound card capabilities. For the asrock this is probably the nvidea gtx 460. From discussions on Tom's hardware it seems that the 5.1 compression is not usually supported??? good luck CN

After looking at the specs for the motherboard, I'd say no. I only see PCI-E slots spec'd, no PCI slots. This adapter's purpose is to allow the user to plug PCI-E cards into a motherboard equipped with PCI slots and not the other way around.

I would not recommend installing 3 GPUs on this board. The reason being that the 3rd PCI E slot has only x8 bandwidth. You`ll essentially be running the third card with half the bandwidth/performance.

If you have AGP port in the motherboard it's possible to use, they are plug n play, try it this is awesome card

It is not compatible with the processor, this motherboard has LGA 1150 socket and Intel Core i5-3570K socket is FCLGA1155Regarding the graphic car, EVGA GTX 660 SC is compatible. The motherboard allows PCI-E x16, the same as the card.I hope I answered your question
