  2. Hardware compatibility list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_compatibility_list

    A hardware compatibility list (HCL) is a list of computer hardware (typically including many types of peripheral devices) that is compatible with a particular operating system or device management software. The list contains both whole computer systems and specific hardware elements including motherboards, sound cards, and video cards. [1]

  3. List of Intel chipsets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_chipsets

    Intel i945GC northbridge with Pentium Dual-Core microprocessor. This article provides a list of motherboard chipsets made by Intel, divided into three main categories: those that use the PCI bus for interconnection (the 4xx series), those that connect using specialized "hub links" (the 8xx series), and those that connect using PCI Express (the 9xx series).

  4. List of AMD chipsets - Wikipedia

    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.

  5. List of VIA chipsets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_VIA_chipsets

    VIA chipsets support CPUs from Intel, AMD (e.g. the Athlon 64) and VIA themselves (e.g. the VIA C3 or C7).They support CPUs as old as the i386 in the early 1990s. In the early 2000s, their chipsets began to offer on-chip graphics support from VIA's joint venture with S3 Graphics beginning in 2001; this support continued into the early 2010s, with the release of the VX11H in August 2012.

  6. Motherboard form factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherboard_form_factor

    For example, the introduction of AGP and, more recently, PCI Express have influenced motherboard design. However, the standardized size and layout of motherboards have changed much more slowly and are controlled by their own standards. The list of components required on a motherboard changes far more slowly than the components themselves.

  7. Socket AM4 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_AM4

    In 2020, AMD faced some criticism when it was announced on May 7 that its Zen 3-based Ryzen 5000 microprocessors would only be compatible with newer 500-series chipset AM4 motherboards. [41] [42] [43] This was explained as motherboard BIOS's sizes not being large enough to support the full range of AM4 socket processors.

  8. DTX (form factor) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTX_(form_factor)

    Comparison of the form factors for motherboards ATX, μATX (micro-ATX), DTX, mini-ITX and mini-DTX The DTX form factor is a variation of ATX specification [1] designed especially for small form factor PCs (especially for HTPCs) with dimensions of 8 × 9.6 inches (203 × 244 mm). [2]

  9. Socket AM3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socket_AM3

    The processor did not work in the AM3 socket, but still worked in an AM2+ socket, suggesting that compatibility issues run deeper than merely the key pins. [4] It is likely because the built-in memory controller in AM2/AM2+ processors only supports DDR2 (unlike AM3 processors, which support both DDR2 & DDR3 memory). [ 5 ]
