Abstract

A computer backplane is disposed with at least an AGP slot, a PCI slot and/or an EISA slot. The PCI slot can be used to electrically connect with PCI cards. The EISA slot and the PCI slot are in alignment to allow that a CPU card can be connected simultaneously to both the EISA slot and the PCI slot. The AGP slot is used to electrically connect with an AGP card. Such an arrangement allows for ease of replacement of the AGP card and a lower production cost.
