Motherboard Components & Form Factors The form factor of a motherboard determines the specifications for its general shape and size. It also specifies what type of case and power supply will be supported, the placement of mounting holes, and the physical layout and organization of the board. LGA1156 connector uses Lynnfied and Clarkdale processors. For Lynnfield, the Core i5 700 series, the Core i7 800 series and the X3400 series and L3400 series Xeon processors. For Clarkdale; the Core i3

Dr. Fahey ITT-Technical Institute: College of Information Technology Abstract This paper identifies the many different parts a computer needs to operate and perform basic tasks. Among these are the motherboard, central processing unit (CPU), and random access memory (RAM). While these components are somewhat mandatory for computer performance this paper will also cover optional pieces of hardware that can improve quality and speed of the computer. These can include graphics processing units (GPU)

2 When you’re choosing to buy a computer, choose either the Motherboard or the CPU first. You must make a decision about one before you buy both. ATX replaces older AT form factors. They are also smaller but they are organized better so they are easier to work on. They also provide support for a wider variety of I/O devices. P1 is the power connectors that the ATX uses; they are compatible with 20 or 24 pin connectors. ATX motherboards also provide a PS/2 connector and 4 USB connectors. Memory slots

that, we set out to build a speedy Windows 8-ready system for under $500. With such a limited budget, dedicating a significant amount of money to any single component isn’t a possibility. With the right balance though, half a grand should be plenty of cash to put together a nice Windows 8 system with minimal compromise. Choosing our components Let’s get what’s probably going to be the most controversial decision out of the way first: The heart of our sub-$500 Windows 8 system is an AMD A8-3870K APU
