The motherboard offers no more IDE connector conventional ATA 133 drives! It also comes without the obligatory floppy connector. DDR3-1800 or higher clock-rates are currently only possible with overclocking, but for this reason you can visit … ? Hard disk drive connectors … The Socket AM3 motherboard supports DDR3 memory modules and can be optimized in the BIOS for DDR3-800, DDR3-1066, DDR3-1333 or DDR3-1600 and faster Dual Channel modules. The ASRock 890GX Extreme3 can be equipped with up to four DDR3 modules and is expandable depending upon operating system used (see list) to maximally 16 GB memory. Additionally to the three PCI Express 2.0 slots there are 3 PCI slots and one x1 PCIe 2.0 slot.
