Northbridge Chip

Northbridge Chip

This chipset is located near the processor socket, serves to connect and control the processor to system memory and graphics systems. Usually large size compared to most other chips in the motherboard. Some motherboards adding heatsinks or cooling fans on the chip so that the chip itself is enclosed by a fan.

Southbridge Chipset

Southbridge Chipset

Part of the small size of the motherboard chipset on the northbridge functions of connecting and controlling the IDE bus, PCI, keyboard, mouse, USB and power management. Some also provide facilities southbridge chip sound card chip embedded in it.

Processor Socket

Processor Socket

Serves to place the processor socket on the motherboard. Socket shapes differ depending on the type of processor used.

Motherboards

Motherboard

The motherboard is the board which is plugged in computer components and can be interconnected. There are so many types of motherboards but the quality is determined by the motherboard chipset that is embedded in it, such as Gigabyte, Intel, SIS, NVIDIA nForce, VIA, and others.The motherboard is a resource center that regulates the work of all connected components.Also the motherboard is also arrange provision of electric power on every PC component.On the motherboard installed some components, such as the holder for both the processor and the socket-shaped slot, memory sockets, AGP slot, PCI slots, ISA slots, chipset, CMOS and other supporting components.

Processor

Processor

Processor is the brain or engine of a PC, sometimes also called the microprocessor or Central Processing Unit (CPU), which performs calculations (ALU function) and the processing system.

PC Components

If you want to assemble a computer, the device should have at least exist and you need to prepare are:1. Casing and Power Supply2. Motherboard with instructions book3. Processors4. Memory (RAM)5. Video Graphic Card (VGA), sometimes it is onboard (found on the motherboard)6. Hard Disk7. Floppy Disk Drive (FDD), is currently not recommended.8. CD-ROM / DVD-ROM Drive9. Monitors (CRT or LCD)10. Keyboard (PS2 connection, USB, or wireless)11. Mouse (PS2 connector, USB, or wireless)12. HDD data cable, FDD, and CD-ROM Drive13. Power cable to the power supply and monitor14. Driver Motherboard, VGA, Sound, etc. (so the system can recognize the device attached)15. CD, DVD or operating system files and applications that want to use16. + Screwdriver (Phillips) medium.
Enhancements to optimize the computer functions, among others:1. Device I / O• Scanner• Printer• Joystick (Game Pad)• Web Camera, etc..2. Multimedia Devices• CD-ROM (RW)• DVD-ROM (RW)• Sound Card• Microphone• Active Speaker• TV / FM Tunner• Digital Camera• Web Camera, etc..3. Network Devices• Modems• Network Adapter / NIC (Network Interface Card)• Wireless Card (802.11 b / g)4. Stabilizer Power Supply Devices• UPS (Un-interrupt Power System), or• Stabilizer.

Computer Casing

Computer Casing

Computer Casing is place of the components that will be our raft. Casing consists of a variety of forms, among others:1. Tower Casing2. Desktop Casings3. Slim casing4. Large Server5. Rackmount
Casing tower model consists of various sizes, including mini-tower, middle tower and full tower composed. Full-tower chassis. Full-tower chassis is generally used for servers. Casing power of this model is usually placed under or beside the computer desk (standing position).
Casing Desktop PC models are usually placed on the table (sleeping position). Casing construction generally sturdy enough so that the monitor can be placed on top.
Casings are generally slim model is flexible because it can be used with bed or standing position. PC at this time many who use slim models. Casing is usually shaped like a large server filecabinet with a larger size. Rackmount computer that is placed on a special rack servers or other network device.
