Can anyone tell me the history of Intel motherboard chips, better be more detailed

Here's a ** for you.

There is this!! Very complete !!

intel z490、amd b550、intel q370。

The motherboard chipset is the core component of the motherboard, which can be likened to a bridge between the CPU and peripheral devices. In the computer industry, the manufacturer that designs the chipset is called core logic, and the Chinese meaning of core is core or center.

Just looking at the literal meaning is enough to see its importance. For the motherboard, the chipset almost determines the function of the motherboard, which in turn affects the performance of the entire computer system, and the chipset is the soul of the motherboard.

Recent Developments:

The technology of the chipset has also advanced by leaps and bounds in recent years, from ISA, PCI to AGP, from ATA to SATA, Ultra DMA technology, dual-channel memory technology, high-speed front-side bus, etc., every new technological advancement has brought about an improvement in computer performance. In 2004, chipset technology changed significantly.

The most striking is PCI Express bus technology, which will replace PCI and AGP and dramatically increase the bandwidth of devices, thus bringing about a revolution in computer technology. On the other hand, chipset technology is also developing in the direction of high integration.

For example, AMD Athlon's 64 CPU has integrated a memory controller inside, which greatly reduces the difficulty of chipset manufacturers to design products, and chipset products have integrated audio, network, SATA, RAID and other functions, greatly reducing the cost of users.

The chipset is related to the processor, generally the first generation, the second generation are different, you see the latest eighth generation core chipset is the latest, but there are many workstations, servers, this chipset can't be seen, because Intel doesn't buy a consumer-level user.

In the past, the motherboard chipset was divided into northbridge chips and southbridge chips, the northbridge was responsible for support for different CPU types and main clocks, memory control, PCI-E bus communication, and the southbridge was responsible for various IO (input and output) communications. Like the G31 and G41 of the Intel platform in the past, and the 780L and 760G of the AMD platform, the north-south bridge design is adopted.

With the advancement of CPU technology, the integration is getting higher and higher, and most of Northbridge's functions have been integrated into the CPU, becoming the current single-chip design. The current motherboard chipset is actually the original Nanqiao chip, and of course, the Yinqin can become more and more powerful. Today's motherboard chipsets mainly provide support for a variety of high-speed transmission interfaces, such as graphics card crossfire, disk arrays, wireless network cards, etc., the higher the interface version, the faster the transfer rate.

Coarse as follows: >>

At present, the mainstream chipsets are:

Intel x58, x48, p43, p45.

AMD 790GX G, 770.

NVIDIA's MCP7a, MCP78, MCP73.

The chipset is equivalent to the brain of the motherboard, and what kind of chipset the motherboard determines what processor the motherboard can hold. Because the motherboard chip is divided into the north bridge chip (close to the processor) and the south bridge chip (far away from the processor), they generally appear in pairs (2), so the nuclear filial piety is called the chipset. The chipset is generally named after the Beikai Chunqiao chip.

The grade of the chipset determines the best and most prudent functions of the motherboard, so it is a very important indicator.
