Question 1

Does it have built in Wifi and Bluetooth?

Accepted Answer

It does not. I'm looking for a PCI Wifi card now to resolve that. It will fit in there, even with a two slot video card.

Question 2

Will this motherboard support Windows 7?

Accepted Answer

According to the manufacturer's web site.  Yes.

Question 3

Can board operate with one Memory card/chip?

Accepted Answer

In can operate with one (correct spec.) DIMM, but will likely run faster with two matched DIMMs due to channel interleaving (one DIMM per channel).

Question 4

Will this board pass 5.1 sound through the DVI port?

Accepted Answer

We know DVI does not support audio. However, some pins may be used for audio through DVI to HDMI adapters. If you are using an HDMI adapter, it may work.
But unfortunately, I do not know if it works on this board. I use it for business and don't have HDMI TVs for testing there.

Question 5

How easy is it to turn off secure boot on this motherboard?

Accepted Answer

Having secure boot disabled simply allows access to external boot devices and other installation options. It is easier actually to enable it than to disable it. Disabling generally requires the entering of a multi-digit passcode that may or my not be displayed on the screen depending on the security level. Enabling generally requires a simple selection and, in greater security levels, setting the passcode.

Question 6

what is the power connecter pin number so i can selector what power pack is needed?

Accepted Answer

This motherboad has a 24pin main power connector with a 4pin north bridge power connector. (note) some power supplies have an 8pin north bridge for apu processor support. If using an apu, (A10/A8/A6/A4), I would recommended to use a board with an 8pin north bridge to deliver optimum power to the internal gpu.
