Dell Precision T3600 System Motherboard, used in professional CAD Workstations. Manufactured in 2012. A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, mobo, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.
The Cx486DRx2 appeared on the market in 1994, by which time the 486 was already being displaced by the Pentium. Sales were poor due to the high price and the underwhelming performance compared to a true Intel 486DX2. It was often cheaper to purchase a new 486 motherboard than to invest in an upgrade CPU. [5]

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.
Texas A&M University School of Law is rising in the ranks, according to U.S. News & World Report. This was the most significant rise in ranking among top 50 schools in the U.S. since last year.
Some of their early uses were in embedded systems, notably used by NASA for the Apollo Guidance Computer, by the military in the LGM-30 Minuteman intercontinental ballistic missile, the Honeywell ALERT airborne computer, [20] [21] and in the Central Air Data Computer used for flight control in the US Navy's F-14A Tomcat fighter jet.
Most computers are designed to be more powerful than their cooling system, but their sustained operations cannot exceed the capacity of the cooling system. [32] While performance can be temporarily increased when the computer is not hot ( overclocking ), [ 33 ] in order to protect the hardware from excessive heat, the system will automatically ...
