The dual chipset mainboard uses the VIA KT880 dual channel DDR400 chipset pairing it up with VT8237 south bridge. This board supports 3 PCI slots, 2 AGP slots, 1 K8port slot. Take note that the 2 AGP slots can't be used at the same time. The slot nearer to the KT880 heatsink is used when K7 processor is installed. The AGP slot nearer to the PCI slot will be used when a K8 processor (s754) is used on the K7Upgrade board. The brown slot that looks like a AMR/CNR slot is used by the K7Bridge. It is not a AMR or CNR slot and never attempt to install a graphics card into the slot, you miht damage the hardware.

The yellow slot is for installing the K7Upgrade Board. On the board are a number of jumpers which needs to be removed or swap positions to 1-2 to 2-3 etc. Please refer to manual for detail instructions on the setup.

To the right, we see the Socket A. There are 4 DIMM slots supporting Dual Channel DDR400. Below it is the IDE port  and +12v port on the side. On the left bottom of the mainboard, we see the 8237 South Bridge, floppy connector and SATA ports.

The 939CPU Board supports 4 Slots of DDR400 in dual channel mode. There is a +12 power connector which you need to hook to. To use the 939CPU Board, the jumpers on the mainboard must be set to use 939Board. Fasten the CPU/HeatsinkFAN and connect it to the yellow slot on the board. If it is installed into a case, the board can be fasten to the case by a screw at the bracket.
