The second lesson about motherboards: What are the parts of the motherboard?

Main components

The LGA 1366 motherboard in the picture below contains a southbridge and a northbridge. This is the last generation of motherboards using dual chips. After that, all Intel and AMD motherboards only have a southbridge, and the northbridge has been integrated into the CPU.

1.CPU socket (LGA 1366)

2.Northbridge (covered by heatsink)

3.Southbridge (covered by heatsink)

4.Memory socket (three-channel)

5.PCI expansion slot

6.PCI Express expansion slot

7.Jumper

8.Control panel (switches, LEDs, etc.)

9.20+4pin motherboard power

10.4+4pin processor power

11.Backplane I/O

12.Front USB pins

13.Front panel audio pins

14.SATA socket

15.ATA socket (most home motherboards after Intel Sandy Bridge microarchitecture have abandoned the IDE interface)

16.Floppy drive socket (since the 2010s, most motherboards have abandoned the floppy drive interface)

Temperature and reliability

Motherboards generally use heatsinks to cool the chipset and CPU. In the past, this passive cooling method could meet the needs. Until 1990, due to the increase in processor frequency and power, the CPU cooler needed to be equipped with a fan to meet the heat dissipation requirements. In addition, there were also fans in the case to help dissipate heat. Today's motherboards integrate temperature sensors to detect the temperature of devices such as the CPU, and analyze temperature changes through BIOS or operating system to control the rotation speed of the fan.

Angxun has been in the motherboard industry for more than 20 years. Registered the brand Angthumb in many countries,we have focused on the production and research and development of intel motherboard,all in one motherboard,and Industrial motherboard,server motherboard etc.The website is : www.angthumb.com
