April 25, 2008, Newsletter Issue #113: Attachments to the Motherboard

Tip of the Week

Motherboards consist of numerous components necessary for your computer to function. It is not possible to see the motherboard without taking the computer apart, and only a trained computer technologist should venture to do so.

The motherboard in your computer will have Universal Serial Bus (USB) or FireWire ports attached to it.

It will also have an Accelerated Graphics Port attached that is necessary for the computer's video card.

There are also PCI connectors for network, audio, and video cards to attach.

Lastly, the motherboard will have an Integrated Drive Electronics attachment for the hard drive.
