Used Motherboards

The heart of a computer is the motherboard. A motherboard is a printed device with many layers, where the conductor tracks are called buses. All computer components - processor, RAM, video card, sound card, hard disks, etc. - are directly connected to them. The main task of the motherboard is to provide power, control, and mutual switching of all devices connected to it. When you need a replacement or are assembling a system unit, you can save money - a used PC motherboard is inexpensive.

Characteristics of motherboards

The technical parameters of computer technology are developing rapidly. Every year, manufacturers release new products, but real leaps in technology are less common.

The sale of used motherboards is relevant both for those who are building a PC from scratch and for upgrading an existing computer.

The main characteristics of motherboards:

• Processor type
• Processor clock speed
• Type of memory and its speed
• Chipset
• Form factor
• Manufacturer

The motherboard supports only certain types of processors. There are two manufacturers in total - Intel and AMD. Modern used motherboards for Intel processors can have sockets: 775, 1150, 1151, 1155, 1156, 1200, 2011, 2066. The 1155 and 1156 sockets are the most popular.

AMD motherboards have the following sockets: AM2, AM3, AM4, FM2, FM2+. Specialists or special programs will help you to assemble a compatible system. After collecting the information, you can buy a motherboard with or without a processor.

The type of RAM is another important characteristic. There are boards on sale that support DDR2, DDR3, and DDR4. The number means the generation of memory. For example, 775 DDR2 is suitable for a weak PC, and DDR4 is suitable for a powerful gaming computer.

A chipset is a set of chips for the interaction of PC components. It includes north and south bridges. Among the current chipsets:

• AMD: A75, A88X, B350, X370
• Intel: B150, B250, G31, G41, H110, H310, H410, H510, H61, H77, H81, HM70, P32, Q6

Form factor is the physical size of the board. There are types:

• ATX
• micro-ATX (mATX)
• mini-ATX
• Flex-ATX
• NLX

The price of new boards can be high, but a used motherboard is an opportunity to save several times. The cost depends on the technical characteristics and purpose (office or professional).
