Hello all.

Just out of curiosity, does this motherboard have a serial port on it? I'm looking into purchasing this motherboard as well as a UPS but the UPS I'm looking into connects via a serial connector. The main OC website doesn't state if it doesn't or does (I haven't purchased the motherboard yet either). I've looked on google (only had time to skim) but can't seem to find any info on it.

Best regards,

Breaks.
 
It sure does, 1 serial and even has a paralell port!

Never bothered with the comms tbh, handy to shut down i spose if the mains is out for long enough
 
I'm even using the parallel port. For some reason the DS4 wouldn't detect my antique HP LJ5P and parallel-to-USB converter so I had to go back to parallel. The serial port might get a workout in a few weeks if my broadband doesn't get moved to our new home at the same time as the phone line.
