After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

Freeway Design FWD-CUPA Motherboard Review

Whats in the box

So what else do we get? Of course we will be getting 1 FWD-CUPA Motherboard with a sexy red PCB. 5 PCI slots, 1 AGP Pro, 1 AMR located above the AGP, 3 SDRAM DIMM slots with a maximum memory support of 1.5GB. You can see the connector for the CardBus located in the lower right-hand corner of the motherboard.

As with any motherboard you buy the mfg. will provide you with at least one floppy and one HDD cable. Freeway is no exception to this and even goes a step further by providing what I would call a "signature vented" floppy cable and a very stiff 80wire ATA100 cable. You will also notice a series of other cables in the last photo. These provide connectivity to the CardBus and soundboards.
