Task 1) Task 1: Procedure
1a) Examine the following motherboard. One interesting thing you will see is the use of two BIOS chips. The M-BIOS chip is the Main BIOS chip and the B-BIOS chip is the Backup BIOS chip, which is used to rewrite the M-BIOS chip if it becomes corrupted.
2a) The LGA 1156 connector known as H socket is a land grid array socket used by first generation workstation. The LGA 1156 connector is used with two processors; Lynnfield and Clarkdale. The Lynnfield has different series of processors the Core i5 700 series, the Core i7 800 series and the X3400 series and L3400 series Xeon. The Clarkdale uses the Core i3 500 series, the Core i5 600 series, the Pentium G6000 series and the Celeron G1000 series. The LGA 1156 connector connects the motherboard to the CPU. Without this connector the system will not operate.
3a) The H55 Chipset is used to provide the interface for the graphics and HD media technology that goes though the CPU and the motherboard. The H55 connects to the MCH (Northbridge). IT is compatible with core i7, core i5, and core i3 processors.
4a) The Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H is an Intel motherboard chipset that is compatible with Intel core i7, core™ i5 and core™ i3 processors. Includes an on/off technology that allows you to charge your iphone, ipad, ECT regardless the PC is on, in standby mode or even turned off. This feature draws current from the Gigabyte motherboard USB ports. Uses a 3x USB power boost that delivers extra power to USB devises. Also it includes 2 ounces of copper for both the Power and Ground layers, delivering a dramatically lower system temperature, improved energy efficiency and enhanced stability for overclocking. It promises to have more stability, reliability and longevity essential to meet the power needs of high-end processors and other components running today's most demanding applications and games.
Task 2)
2a) The AMD 770 Northbridge Chipset uses the Phenom Processors. It enables fast speeds with the latest HD technologies. It is also easy to use.
2b) The AMD SB710 Southbridge Chipset can be used with Socket AM3/AM2 processors, AMD Turion II Neo | AMD Athlon II Neo processors (ASB 2), AMD Turion Neo, AMD Athlon Neo and AMD Sempron Processors (ASB 1). Its purpose is to optimize power saving and video decoder.
2c) The Socket AM3 Connector uses the AM3 and AM3+ processors.

Task 3)

3b) Intel E5300 is the CPU’s name. Pentium Dual Core is a representation of the type of processor unit. The three units separated by forward slashes are the clock speed, internal cache, and bus speed in that order.
3c) The pins are located on the right side of the clear space in the middle of the CPU. This is a core package style.
