The terms on the motherboard
The terms contained in the motherboard are as follows:
1. BIOS (Basic Input / Output System). Is a collection of information on the motherboard and also the software that contains the basic commands. Its main function is as a means of communication between the operating system with hardware that is installed on the motherboard.
2. Bus is the term used to express the data flow system that used hardware that is installed on the motherboard to communicate with the processor. Units used are usually in the form of frequency (Hertz) or width bits of data.
3. Clock Speed is a term used to express the speed of a processor or other components.Figures obtained by multiply the clock speed multiplier to the FSB. The higher clock speed, the higher the performance is also generated by the processor or hardware component. Units used are usually megahertz (MHz) or gigahertz (GHz). Usually referred to also as external speed of a processor.
4. FSB (Front Side Bus) is the main bus connecting the processor to the motherboard chipset.The unit used is megahertz (MHz).
5. Heatsink component is placed on the processor. And serves to absorb heat generated when the processor works. Typically a heatsink equipped with a fan to keep the processor temperature remains stable.
6. Overclocking is a technique that is done to improve processor performance, memory, graphics card or by increasing the FSB or clock speed component. This technique requires a special cooling system components, because it produces excessive heat, where this excess heat can reduce kenerja computer and can even damage the computer system.

Trend Motherboard
Trend Motherboard
Before the motherboard made computer components are placed on a separate card and connected using cables is very complicated. Because very rumir connect one computer component to another component, the computer developers had the idea to create a place that could connect the components or peripherals. So that creates a variety of boards that have slots for connecting computer components, called the motherboard.
In the early development of the motherboard around the year 1980 until 1990, Intel dominates the processor market. In addition there are a few Intel processors manun after moving the company can not menyaingin Intel, Most of the products by taking them out of the Intel x86 Desai.
In the year 2000 or around the end of 1990 then AMD in the market appeared a processor that emits a K6-2 processor and Athom that can compete with Intel. And in the same VIA Technology chip-producing industry was also release Taiwanese chipset quality with low price. So that makes the motherboard manufacturers rush to develop the motherboard Lomb to attend or support the abilities of the processor development.

Motherboard components
Motherboard Components
The motherboard consists of several important components of which are as follows:
Chipset
Components on the motherboard that this one was mostly composed of two chips, north bridge and south bridge.
The main functions of the chipset is to regulate the flow or antarkomponen-component data activity installed on a motherboard. Two chipsets that are usually found on motherboards have different tasks to each other.
On the north bridge chip is used to manage data flow to and from the processor, AGP bus, and main memory system. South bridge chip controls the flow of data from input output devices, PCI bus, hard disk interface, and floppy, as well as other external devices.Since the north bridge chip is more vital than the south bridge work, would not be surprised if the chip is fitted with heatsink, fan, or a combination heatsink and fan by the manufacturer or by the manufacturer.
AGP
AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is used to distribute data from the graphics card to the CPU without having to go through the main memory, thereby processing graphic data can be quickly didilakukan. Another advantage of this AGP is its ability to execute the texture maps directly from the main memory. At this time most of the motherboard includes an AGP 4X bus working at 266MHz frequency. For now, the AGP port is used for installing new graphics card that in fact much faster than using the PCI bus.However, some motherboards already include the latest AGP Pro port that can be fitted either 4X AGP-based graphics card or AGP-based Pro.
Memory Sockets
This socket is the place to put a memory on the motherboard.Memory sockets have several different forms and for different types of memory. Usually the motherboard has a slot as many as three or four pieces, and depending on the chipset used by the motherboard. For SDRAM memory, DIMM socket must have a socket 168 pins, while for the type of DDR memory, a socket connector attached to pin 184.
Processor Socket
This socket is the place to install the processor. If in antiquity, there are other options besides the socket system is the system slot. However, after a period PentiumIII second generation, the type of this slot and then abandoned because production biyaya used are more expensive than using the socket. To kepentinagan socket processor, choose a motherboard that uses the appropriate processor socket. Socket 370 for Intel Celeron PentiumIII and, while the socket A for AMD Athlon and Duron processors, and socket 423 / 478 for Pentium4 processors.
CMOS
CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor). If seen from the shape is already visible that this is a shaped component IC (integrated circuit) which functions to hold the BIOS settings and can even keep all the settings for battery-settingannya mendayainya still good.
External Device Port (serial, parallel, audio, USB)
Normally this port is in the back of the motherboard. And serves as a means to provide input (input) and outputs (output) on a computer system. Generation motherboards at this time have also included a USB port for connecting with
other peripherals such as printers, scanners, digital cameras and other peripherals are USB based. In addition to the USB port, sometimes on some motherboards also included an Ethernet port for entry into computer networks. Type or kind of this kind is not too much, but a lot of help, especially for use in small office or internet café which had a minimal budget.
Power Supply and Fan Connector
serves to supply or emberikan power to all connected components on the motherboard.
Casing Connector
Serves to connect the switch buttons and indicators on the chassis to the motherboard. On a Pentium 4-based motherboards, also included an additional connector port for 12 volts to the processor can work.
IDE & Floppy Connector
Functioning as an interface that connects the hard disk and floppy disk to the motherboard. In the current hard drive interface on the motherboard that is widely used is Ultra ATA/100 IDE that can provide data transfer speeds up to 100 MB / sec. Motherboard Manufacturer Maxtor is currently developing a new interface that is Ultra ATA / 133. But until now there has been no recent information that the interface is getting a good response from other vendors. Which must be observed or important in determining the motherboard is recognizing its size.
There are several types of motherboard size, ranging from the AT, ATX and micro ATX. These measures are called form factors. In general, motherboard, motherboard ATX now use the technology.Motherboard-class motherboards have standard micro ATX type, while mid-end motherboard or high end mostly using ATX form factor. Although his form factor is different, every motherboard has the same standardization, so this measure only affects the choice of casing to be used.
