The board looks very similar to the older ASRock boards with a blue PCB. It comes with 3 PCI, and 2 PCIe x16 (1x4+1x16) slots with ATI CrossFireTM support. Behind the slots are the Audio codec and GbE controller. To the right of the PCIe x16 slot, we see the 24/20 pin power connector and a 8/4 pin aux power connector on the right hand corner of the board. Next to it is in connector for the eSATA port (via SATA cable hooking up port from bottom left of mainboard - orange SATAII port).

The board also has 6 x Serial ATAII 3.0 Gb/s connectors, support RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5 and Intel® Matrix Storage), NCQ, AHCI and Hot Plug functions with 1 x eSerial ATAII 3.0 Gb/s connector (shared with 1 SATAII port). There is also a 1 x WiFi header and 7.1 CH Windows® Vista™ Premium Level HD Audio with Content Protection, supports DAC with 110dB dynamic range (ALC890 Audio Codec), DTS (Digital Theater Systems) support. The back panel has 2 x RJ-45 LAN Port LED, 1 x eSATAII port, 1 x IEEE 1394 ports, 4 ready-to-use USB ports.

For those who can't afford the DDR3 modules, you can use DDR2 with this board and upgrade to DDR3 in the future. The board supports Dual Channel DDR3 1333/1066/800 (2 x DIMM slots) with max. capacity up to 4GB and Dual Channel DDR2 1066/800/667 (4 x DIMM slots) with max. capacity up to 8GB.

The back panel consists of PS/2 mouse/keyboard, COm1, LPT1, 1 eSTA port, 4 USB, 1 GbE, 1 1394 and 7.1 ch audio ports.
