Question

Lab Project 7.2 One of the most important skills a PC technician canWhat kinds of onboard ports does it h pasvessis the ability to read and interpret documenWhat kinds of CPUs does it support a tation. No single piece of documentation is as impor- tant as the motherboard book. Let's see how well youDoes your motherboard use jumpers or can understand this documentation. Consult your motherboard book or use one that your instructor provides. (If you do not have the motherboard book, try to download Then write a paragraph about your motherboard that includes answers to the following questions: w kind of processor slot does it have? Does your motherboard use junm switches for configuration? If so, what do jumpers or dip switches control? the it from the manufacturer's Web site) The motherboard book probably con an illustration of the way the motherboard components are laid out. By examining this illustration, determine what form factor your motherboard uses. What make and model is the motherboard? What chipset does it use? What kinds of RAM slots does it contain? Does your motherboard have any unusual or proprietary features? . What kinds of expansion slots does your motherboard have and how many of each kind does it have?

Answer 1

1.There are several Models of motherboards such as ATX,BTX,NLX etc..,BTX is the latest model used by Intel.

2.Every motherboard has a number of Intergrated Circuits,permanently installed on different parts of the board. Each chip has a separate function. It is most common for these chips to all be from a single manufacturer. You might see ASUS brand motherboards, for example, with chipsets from Intel or VIA. Some companies such as Intel make their own motherboards in addition to chipsets for competitors’ products. Manufacturers such as these virtually always use their own chipsets in their motherboards.

The X58 chipset, It supports the Intel LGA1366 socket, the Core i7 processors.It does not control memory because the memory controller is embedded in the Core i7 processor.

3.DDR4 RAM

4.Usb 1.1,2.0,3.0 are the expansion board in Peripheral Component InterConnect

5.Motherboards have some or all of the following ports: serial, parallel, game, PS/2 mouse, PS/2 or AT keyboard, and USB.

6.IT SUPPORT INTEL CORE i7 PROCESSORS

7.Yes and jumpers allow the computer to close an electrical circuit, allowing the electricity to flow certain sections of the circuit board. Also dip switch is a set of small switches in a dual in-line package (DIP) that is used to change the operating mode of a device. Dip switches are used to configure computer peripherals such as hard drives, modems, sound cards, and motherboards.

8.BTX is the form factor

9.It supports HDMI and USB 2.0
