silly question. but what is that loooong white expansion port at the bottom of this old school mobo?

 

[seumasbeathan]

Man those heatsinks are nearly as bad as the Z77 UD5H

I like the UD5H, nice and simple

Those are ISA slots (Industry Standard Architecture) which were later extended for use with 32-bit processors as Extended Industry Standard Architecture (EISA).

Basically it was an attempt to improve the AGP slot before coming out with the PCI/PCI-e slots. However, there are some places that still utilize ISA slots for extreme hardware.

 

[Cydia]

What kind of extreme hardware? What could you possibly put into that slot?

Love the look of this board

AsRock Fatal1ty P67 Professional B3

I think it is rather ugly, the company that makes it is called ECS they also do an all gold GTX 680 to my knowledge I'm sure they do much more. But it is gold and someone may like it so I guess it could be awesome to someone.

I have a board like that, but Asus and brown. The system isn't running anymore for obvious reasons.
