The main specs are from the maker's spec sheet; other details come from the shops' listings.
Expansion slots top to bottom, as the shops list them
- PCIe x16 full speed graphics card goes here
- PCIe x1 full speed
A long (x16) slot can be wired for fewer lanes. A graphics card fits, but in an x4 slot it runs slower, so always use the top slot for it.
