There is a socket the yellow one i think which has a attachement to be attached to it
for connecting one more proccy with more seperate slots for Ram

@quad That link is not for this mobo's photo, that's for the old dual(754+939) motherboard.
Here the correct link for its photo http://www.ocworkbench.com/2005/computex2005/day0/939Dual-M2.jpg

Its also got a yellow slot which is meant for connecting the daughter board which would have the socket for AMD's new M2 slot procc.(which would be out by 2006). Also this motherboard got both PCI-e x16 and AGP 8x Slots.

Looks Asrock is gr8 for making combo solutions & now a future socket already supported with a daughter card which fits in that yellow slot.

Donno how Asrock performs with that daughter card socket m2 proccy inserted.
 
correct me if i am wrong but how in this world that will be possible?
Aint the M2 suppose to be with DDR2 support? And memory controller being on the chip means there is no way it will work with DDR.

Or is it gona be that other mobo with ram modules on the daughter card itself?
 
Duaughter Card is inserted in the yellow slot.

The daughter card is itself very big
the daughter card has the Socket M2 & the seperate Ram slots for M2.

[Correct me if i am wrong]
But this is what i had seen in the Mag.
 
Would never buy an Asrock.... they had also released a socket 754 and 939 mobo..... But stilll would rather upgrade my mobo to an M2 one from Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, Dfi, etc....
