The motherboard is the part of the computer where such things as the processor, memory modules, expansion cards and external devices are attached. This means that the motherboard controls the functions of different components. Below are some important features of the motherboard:
- Number and type of hook-ups for peripheral devices
- Number of memory module slots (for the RAM)
- The chipset (determines how a new processor can be hooked up to the motherboard)
In addition to different hook-ups, the motherboard contains a small battery to ensure that the settings to the motherboard are preserved even when the computer is turned off.
