MOTHERBOARD PARTS AND FUNCTIONS

CPU

Just as important as your graphics card in gaming is your computer’s processor or CPU. This typically handles much of the actual game play when you are playing games, such as taking input instructions from your mouse and keyboard, actually running the game, loading maps and backgrounds, and processing events which occur inside the game. Once calculated, these items which have been handled by the CPU are passed on to the graphics card for final rendering/display and output to your display monitor.

Graphics Card

Your graphics card is arguably the most important part of a gaming computer build. Anything displayed on your computer monitor has come directly from your graphics card (or on-board graphics processor if you don’t have a dedicated graphics card). It directly handles the processing and rendering of images which are received from your central processing unit (CPU) so that they can be displayed on your screen. Many graphics cards have in-built features to handle specific graphical aspects of game play such as image rotation/fine textures/anti-aliasing, so that your CPU doesn’t have to handle these particular operations and is free for other processing activities.

Video Card Slot

This is the type of slot that doesn’t need an explanation, as its name doesn’t leave much room for interpretation as to what its role is. Coming in the form of a PCI-Express slot on newer motherboards or AGP on older ones, the video card slot is situated right below the processor.It is not uncommon for older motherboards, especially those that target the office segment, to lack this slot, meaning that you won’t be able to install a discrete video card, thus having to rely on the integrated one. At the opposite pole, high-end gaming motherboards come with multiple video card slots, allowing the installation of multiple video cards in a SLI or CrossFire configuration.

Memory Slot

Located in the upper-right part of the motherboard, the memory slots are used to house the computer’s memory modules. The number of slots can vary, depending on motherboard, from 2, in low-end motherboards, all the way up to 8 memory slots, on high-end and gaming motherboards.

It is important to pay close attention to the type of memory a motherboard supports, in order to buy the appropriate memory modules. Newer motherboards support DDR3 memory, the current industry standard memory architecture, but motherboards with DDR2 memory slots and even DDR1 memory slots are still present on the market. An interesting aspect is that there are some older motherboard models that supported different types of memory, and usually come with two DDR1 memory slots and DDR2 memory slots, or two DDR2 slots and two DDR3 slots. These motherboards were great options for people that wanted to upgrade a motherboard without having to upgrade all the other components as well.

The number of memory slots should be an important criterion to take into account when choosing a motherboard, as it will determine the maximum amount of memory you can install.

What is Motherboard?- How it works and other componet that make up motherboard.

Motherboard is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in a computer. The motherboard is a computer’s central communications backbone connectivity point, through which all components and external peripherals connect. However, all motherboards have a few things in common.The motherboard is a sheet of plastic that holds all the circuitry to connect the various components of a computer system. Learn how the motherboard functions to make all the other components work together.

The motherboard is a printed circuit that acts like the air traffic controller of the computer. It coordinates all the processes, makes sure power is routed properly, and connects all the other components of a computer together. Common brands like Intel, MSI, Gigabyte, and Asus manufacture motherboards for computers.

Phones, tablets and other small devices have motherboards too but they're often called logic boards instead. Their components are usually soldered directly onto the board to save space, which means there aren't expansion slots for upgrades like you see in desktop computers.

The IBM Personal Computer that was released in 1981, is considered to be the very first computer motherboard (it was called a "planar" at the time).

Note: A computer's motherboard is also known as the mainboard, mobo (abbreviation), MB (abbreviation), system board, baseboard

In laptops and tablets, and increasingly even in desktops, the motherboard often incorporates the functions of the video card and sound card. This helps keep these types of computers small in size. However, it also prevents those built-in components from being upgraded.

Poor cooling mechanisms in place for the motherboard can damage the hardware attached to it. This is why high performance devices like the CPU and high-end video cards are usually cooled with heat sinks, and integrated sensors are often used to  detect the 

temperature and communicate with the BIOS or operating system to regular the fan speed.

Devices connected to a motherboard often need device drivers manually installed in order to make them work with the operating system.

Different between Operating System (OS) and Applications (apps) on android phone.

There are two classes: system and apps. Systems are the ones the phone usually needs to perform its routine services. You can stop it and can restrict them, but can't uninstall. If uncertain, you should Google the names of services to see what they are before attempting stopping. As far as apps, these will typically not cause any impact to the way your phone runs, and can be stopped/disabled/uninstalled.

MOVING AROUND YOUR DOCUMENT

Step 1: From the desktop or from your ‘Start’ menu, open Microsoft Word.

Step 2: Click either File or the office button at the top left. Choose Open and browse to the document you would like to open. Double-click on that by left clicking on your mouse to open it.

Step 3: The flashing pointer (mouse pointer) within the document tells you where you’re typewriting. Where the flashing pointer is placed, the letters that you typed are inserted at that time. After you begin a blank document, the flashing pointer is at the beginning of your document prepared for you to begin typewriting.

Step 4: As you kind, the pointer also will move with every letter. This guides you in order that you recognize wherever the main target is for typewriting.

Step 5: The mouse can be used for moving around a document. When the mouse pointer is moved over a text area, the pointer will change from an arrow to a ‘text select’ or ‘I-beam’ icon. You will see something like this below when the mouse is moved over a text
                                                                 ፲

Step 6: Move the text select/mouse pointer together with your mouse to wherever you'd prefer to amendment or add text. Click the left-hand push. This may then place the flashing pointer at the point where you have clicked in order that you'll edit or insert text.
