There are many kinds of motherboards If they are different, what are the differences in general

The motherboard is the nerve center of a computer, playing a role in coordinating work, the chipset is the brain of the motherboard, just like the CPU is the brain of the computer, there are many manufacturers that produce chipsets, such as Intel, ATI, NVDIA, VIA, SIS, etc., these are manufacturers that produce chipsets, and motherboard manufacturers will install them on their motherboards after buying the chipset**, so the motherboard factory and the chipset factory are not the same thing, strictly speaking, the chipset factory is more advanced than the motherboard factory.

The above mentioned 5 chipset manufacturers have their own product lines, that is, there are different products from low-level to high-level, due to the passage of time, each manufacturer has to withdraw its own new products to meet the needs of the market, such as the emergence of serial port hard disk on the market today, the chipset manufacturers should also correspondingly withdraw from the chipset that can support serial port hard disk, tomorrow there is DDR2 memory on the market, then the manufacturer will also launch products accordingly, the latest product is of course the best, but the price is also greater, Therefore, it is important to choose the right product for you. First of all, you need to determine what product you want to use, although the function of the motherboard is similar, but in order to attract more customers, manufacturers often integrate more functions into the motherboard to please consumers, then you have to choose the product according to your needs.

There are many brands of motherboards, there are also many chipsets, and there are many chipset models of the same brand :)

At present, the mainstream motherboards in the DIY market are mainly divided into: ATX (standard), M-ATX (compact), mini-ITX (mini), etc.

In other words, the motherboard board type is only related to the size of the motherboard, and has nothing to do with the motherboard chip model, any motherboard may be divided into ATX (standard), M-ATX (compact), e-ATX (enhanced) and other specifications, but there are differences in size and expansion interface.

M-ATX version.

M-ATX is the micro ATX board type, commonly known as the compact motherboard, also known as the small board, its structure is square silver shape, the most common is and two sizes of sailback, M-ATX motherboard is mainly used in small chassis computers, now the installation is very mainstream motherboard board type.

Mini-ITX motherboards, commonly known as mini motherboards, are also square in structure, with a size of about 17 x 17cm, and the motherboard size is smaller, suitable for some smaller mini chassis computers.

ATX motherboards are mainly divided into ATX large boards and micro ATX small boards, which are 305 x 244 mm and 244 x 244 mm in size, respectively. There are many slots in the large board, strong expandability, and the small board is small in size, and a variety of beautiful small chassis can be used to integrate the graphics card.

The so-called "big board" usually refers to a full-size ATX motherboard, which can accommodate more electronic components, more functional interfaces and expansion slots due to its large area, so it is richer and more powerful, and the electrical performance will be better, and the work will be more stable (such as better overclocking ability).

The "small board" refers to the micro ATX motherboard, which is shorter and smaller, so the area is small, the expandability is poor (such as PCI slots, memory slots are fewer), and the function and performance are limited to a certain extent.

Generally speaking, the function of the small board is not much worse than that of the large board, and it is enough for ordinary use, which is more suitable for small-sized chassis and more affordable.

There are large and small computer motherboards, which motherboard is better? Today is a long time to see.

The naming method of the one-board product is roughly as follows: motherboard brand abbreviation + chipset model + alphanumeric abbreviation. It can be distinguished from the brand chipset and the letter initials.

Part 1: Brand part, ASUS stands for the "ASUS" brand. GA stands for "Gigabyte". MSI stands for "MSI" brand. In addition, there are brands such as ASRock, Onda, and Yingtai.

The second part: chipset, such as B85, Z97, etc., called "chipset", is generally based on different CPU models and pins, select the appropriate chipset.

The letter behind the chipset with M behind the chipset is the M-ATX small board; The one with N behind the chipset is the mini-ITX board type, commonly known as the mini version; After the chipset, Mina does not have letters, which is a normal big board; In addition, high-end chipset motherboards have other meanings.

The third part: letter abbreviation, number + letter part, the larger the number, the higher the grade of the board, the better the workmanship, the more complete the functions, the high-end, with the letter D, indicating that this motherboard is an all-solid-state capacitor; With the letter s, it indicates that solid-state capacitors are partially used;

For the case of DS at the same time, it is a special case of a certain brand, which is actually a combination of "S + digital". The letter with H means that the motherboard has HDMI output, and the letter with V means that the motherboard has DVI output, that is, there is a difference in the rear interface of the motherboard.

The penultimate number – the bigger, the better.

The last number: 0 is the highest-level motherboard, 5 is the motherboard with complete functionality, 3 is the mid-range motherboard, which is decent enough for the average user, and 1 is the entry-level (low-end) motherboard.
