These voltage regulator heat sinks are cooled by the CPU fan air flow.

'EZ Plug' needs to be used for all graphics cards that do not come with their own auxiliary power port, such as the GeForce 6600GT. The red LED will flash if the power cable is not inserted.

The board comes with two Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, powered by Marvell chips. However, only one of them uses NVIDIA's ActiveArmor firewall.

Eight SATA ports should be more than sufficient.
