  2. Nonvolatile BIOS memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonvolatile_BIOS_memory

    Motherboards have circuitry preventing batteries from being charged and discharged when a motherboard is powered on. Other common battery cell types can last significantly longer or shorter periods, such as the smaller CR2016 which will generally last about 40% less time than CR2032. Higher temperatures and longer power-off time will shorten ...

    Some motherboards have a built-in display to diagnose hardware problems. Most also report POST errors with audible beeps, if a PC speaker is attached. Such motherboards make POST cards less necessary. When these diagnostic cards were first introduced motherboards were expensive and well worth troubleshooting and repairing.

  7. Overclocking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overclocking

    The purpose of overclocking is to increase the operating speed of a given component. [3] Normally, on modern systems, the target of overclocking is increasing the performance of a major chip or subsystem, such as the main processor or graphics controller, but other components, such as system memory or system buses (generally on the motherboard), are commonly involved.

  8. Asus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASUS

    When ASUS approached Intel to request a processor to test it, Intel itself had a problem with its own 486 motherboard. ASUS solved Intel's problem and it turned out that ASUS' motherboard worked correctly without the need for further modification. Since then, ASUS was receiving Intel engineering samples ahead of its competitors. [15] [16]

    It is concluded that motherboards with the Knoll Activator would be built with I/O from the processor and low-cost I/O chips. [ 19 ] Individual chipset models differ in the number of PCI Express lanes, USB ports, and SATA connectors, as well as supported technologies; the table below shows these differences.
