Motherboard

Overview

This is the part of a computer or Server that all other components of that system also plug into and provides the way they can work together for computing. The basic elements that plug in to a motherboard are CPU, RAM, Graphics Card, Sound Card, USB controller and ports, and Hard drives. In many computers the Graphics Card and Sound Card are not separate components; instead they are built in to the Motherboard or CPU.
