However, you do not have access to the motherboard documentation and hence cannot increase the memory in your system. The board has four DIMM slots, three of which are yellow and one which is black. When you open the case, you discover that three of the DIMM slots are yellow and one is black. What sort of DIMM is most likely to be used by the board? What makes you think you're in the clear?
On the motherboard, indicate the number and kind of expansion slots accessible. Is the P1 connector on the board a 20-pin or a 24-pin connection? Is there anything else on the board that can provide electricity? What is the total number of memory slots on the board?
A PCle Version 2.0 expansion card's maximum power draw is unknown.
