2. Essentials components in Mobo The more important part in a mobo is the chipset. It make the interconnexions between all the other parts on the mobo.

3. Mobo exemple :

4. The Nvidia Nforce4 It’s the best chipset for AMD K8 CPU.

5. Link CPU  DDR Memory dual Cannal Bus = 2*64 bits Min Clock : 200mhz

6. Link CPU  Chipset HT : Hypertransport Fullduplex bus 16bits/16bits 1 Ghz

7. Chipset Bus The Nforce4 have a PCI-EXPRESS bus with 20 lines It’s a Fullduplex bus ! 1 line : 250 mo/sec up | 250 mo/sec down Max : 4 lines Max : 16 lines Max : 1 line Max : 16 lines

8. Chipset Bus The PCI bus Caracteristics : 32 bits / 33 mhz Brandwhich : 133mo/sec fullduplex The brandwhich is divide between each port PCI.

9. Integrated function 1

10. Integrated Function 2

11. Onboard function Silicon Image 3112 Sata control Raid 0/1/10/5 Marvel Lan Gigabit

12. Mobo power supply

13. The mobo overclocking One frequency : the HT CPU clock = HT * Coef Ram clock = Cpu clock / Coef LinkHT = HT*coef

14. Overclocking exemple CPU 3000+ => 9*200 = 1800Mhz Ram = 1800 / 9 = 200Mhz LinkHT = 200*5 = 1000Mhz CPU = 9*312 = 2800Mhz Ram = 2800/10 = 280Mhz LinkHT = 312*3 = 936Mhz

17. Market Research Mobo for AMD CPU socket 754 Nforce3 150/250 Nforce4 4X Via K8T800 ULI M1689

18. Market research Mobo for AMD CPU socket 939 Nforce3 Ultra Nforce4 Ultra / SLI / SLI-16X ATI RS480 / RD480 VIA K8T800 K8T890

19. Market Research Mobo for AMD CPU socket 940 (server station) AMD 8111 Nforce4 Pro/Crush K8-04

20. Mobo SMP

21. Market Research (INTEL) Mobo for Intel CPU Socket 775 Intel i915 / i925 / i945 / i955 / i975 NForce4 SLI Intel Edition

22. Market Research Mobo for Intel CPU (XEON) socket 604
