Foxconn Blackops main features will be:

• Socket: 775.
• Chipset: Intel X48 Express.
• Super I/O: Fintek F71882FG
• Parallel IDE: One ATA-133 port controlled by JMicron JMB363 chip.
• Serial IDE: Six SATA-300 ports controlled by the south bridge chip (ICH9R), supporting RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 plus two eSATA-300 ports controlled by JMicron JMB363 chip.
• USB: 12 USB 2.0 ports (six soldered on the motherboard and six available through I/O brackets).

This motherboard comes with a riser card based on Realtek ALC885 codec (eight channels, 24-bit resolution, up to 192 kHz sampling rate for both the inputs and outputs, 101 dB signal-to-noise ratio for the inputs and 106 dB signal-to-noise ratio for the outputs).
• On-board video: No.
• On-board LAN: Two Gigabit Ethernet ports, one controlled by the chipset together with a Broadcom chip to make the physical layer interface and the other controlled by a Broadcom BCM5788 controller (connected to the PCI bus).
• Buzzer: No.
• Power supply required: EPS12V.
• Slots: Three PCI Express x16 slots supporting CrossFire (two of them working at x16 and one – white slot – working at x4) and three standard PCI slots.
• Memory: Four DDR-DIMM sockets up to DDR3-1600/PC3-12800.
• Extra features: Cooling solution that can be configured as passive, water cooling or dry ice/liquid nitrogen, aluminum solid capacitors, POST diagnostics display and power, reset and clear CMOS switches.
