THE SUPERMICRO P4DC6 MOTHERBOARD Introduction The supermicro P4DC6 Motherboard is a server motherboard that has the most up-to-date specifications and features. The PC motherboard was first introduced in 1960, when Digital Equipment introduced the first minicomputer (PC). The PDP-1, which sold for US$120,000, was the first commercial computer equipped with a keyboard and monitor. This motherboard was MUCH larger than the ones we see today. Today’s motherboards are merely one-tenth the size of the
1.1. Motherboard:- • The motherboard is the main circuit board of your computer and is also known as the mainboard or logic board. If you ever open your computer, the biggest piece of silicon you see is the motherboard. Attached to the motherboard, you'll find the CPU, ROM, memory RAM expansion slots, PCI slots, and USB ports. It also includes controllers for devices like the hard drive, DVD drive, keyboard, and mouse. Basically, the motherboard is what makes everything in your computer work together
cannot have headahces later on. Now you are ready to install your motherboard. Lay your case on it's side for installing the motherboard. If your case has a removable motherboard plate then take it out to install the motherboard on it. Match up the motherboard mounting hole with the case or plate. Now use the standoffs and install them to the case or plate where the holes lined up. Then use the screws and screw the motherboard down to the standoffs. Some case use plastic standoffs. These usually
for attaching additional boards. Typically, the motherboard contains the CPU, BIOS, memory, mass storage interfaces, serial and parallel ports, expansion slots, and all the controllers required to control standard peripheral devices, such as the display screen, keyboard, and disk drive. Collectively, all these chips that reside on the motherboard are known as the motherboard's chipset. I have chosen to purchase the “GIGABYTE M57SLI-S4” Motherboard. My reason for this is the following review retrieved
Introduction So as a user who just built a computer, I used a full size ATX motherboard with 2 DDR3 4GB cards, Intel i7-4940MX 64 bit, AMD Radeon R9 graphics card. I tried turning my computer on and nothing happens. The fan comes on for a brief second then shuts off. I should also say that when I hit the power button no LEDs come on. There are also no beeps when I hit the power button. And finally the screen does not come on as well. I have made sure all the plugs in the back are in the right jack

uses. This makes for a very complex system of parts that work together to do what the user wants from the computer. The purpose of this paper is to explain a few main components of the computer. The components covered are going to be system units, Motherboards, Central Processing Units, and Memory. Many people are not familiar with these terms and their meaning. These components are commonly mistaken for one and other. System units are commonly mistaken as the Central Processing unit (CPU). System
Introduction: A bus is simply a circuit that connects one part of the motherboard to another. The more data a bus can handle at one time, the faster it allows information to travel. The speed of the bus, measured in megahertz (MHz), refers to how much data can move across the bus simultaneously. Bus speed usually refers to the speed of the front side bus (FSB), which connects the CPU to the northbridge. FSB speeds can range from 66 MHz to over 800 MHz. Since the CPU reaches the memory controller
Owning a desktop PC can be a rewarding experience that is long-lasting. Many PC users do not know how to perform their own hardware upgrades and repairs. Users can increase the lifespan and performance of their desktop PC with simple hardware upgrades. It requires a small amount of knowledge to be capable of upgrading many of the key components inside of a computer. A large portion of users are scared of opening a PC to perform a repair or upgrade. Computer upgrades are usually very simple, and there
Consult the documentation that came with your computer to determine how to expose the power supply for removal. 4. Disconnect the existing power supply from the motherboard. The catch securing the power supply connector must be released to permit the connector to be removed. 5. Disconnect all other power supply leads to the motherboard (fan monitors, ATX12V, EPS12V, AUX). 6. Disconnect the power supply from all drives and add-on cards. 7. Disconnect the power supply from all fans. 8. Remove the
Introduction The bus loosely defines as a digital path between resources and the processor of computer system. The bus provides an informational gateway or highway of wires, which allow binary signals to transmit to and from peripherals, memory, the central processing unit (CPU), and other components of a computer system. Due to these attributes, bus architecture divided into two major groups, frontside bus and peripheral bus. The frontside bus, also known as the system bus, facilitates all internal
processor to make a connection with the motherboard. The function of the processor is to take the data from memory, (a storage device) or an outside controller like a keyboard, joystick, or scanner. This is determined in the program by sending messages to the processor in binary language. Binary language is sent to the processor commanding the transistors to flip on or off, (on equals one and off equals zero). The processor is placed on a motherboard with a bus speed of that to match the processor
is a motherboard chipset and why is it important? The chipset defines many aspects of the motherboard. Tell me about what they do and what they control? A chipset is a piece that specifies what motherboard can and can’t do. In another word, a chipset determines, what components are compatible with the motherboard. For example, a chipset can determine how much ram can the motherboard run, which type of CPU, and what kind of graphics cards can run. Also, it determines whether the motherboard can be
stability, and work well with the other components you select. For my system, I have chosen components that have been thoroughly tested and approved by respected people in the technology field. The centerpiece of this system is of course the motherboard. I wanted something that was cutting edge but also stable. Ease of use is important, as well as compatibility. I plan to do some over-clocking so this feature was also of great importance to me. After sifting through many reviews I rested on the
Computers have become more common products sold by many stores nowadays, instead of when they were first introduced as a specialty item. Computers continually change and progress further as we move further into the technological age. Currently when one goes to a retailer to buy a computer, there are many brands of computers being sold. However in reality, there are two different types of computers actually being sold. One type is a personal computer, or PC, that is typically used for personal home
A Comparison of Computer Graphics Cards In today’s world of advanced computer games, the requirements that computers must meet to run these games are very, very steep ones. A major requirement of almost all high tech computer games is a decent graphics card. With most of the games today being developed in 3-D, unlike the games a decade ago which were almost always 2-D, an advanced graphics card is a must to get any amount of fun from these games. Two companies that are heavyweights
Jacob Rusgrove Week 6 Assignment Grantham University 9-9-17 A bus is a communication system that connects multiple subsystems within a computer. An average computer system normally consists of several components such as a central processing unit, memory devices, and input/output (I/O) devices. The bus system consists of linking media like wires and connectors, and a bus protocol. Buses can be categorized as serial or parallel and synchronous or asynchronous. The bus lets the different components

saying you need to know the name of every single CPU just by looking at it, but you need to know what is compatible with what. You’ll also need to know all the required parts that you need for your build. The basic parts you’ll need are a case, Motherboard, CPU, CPU Fan, Hard Drive, RAM, an Optical Drive (Disk Reader), an Operating System, and a Power Supply. That is all you need for a simple build. After you get all the required parts, and again making sure they’re compatible with each other, you
