What is the differences between the southbridge and the northbridge?
The north and south bridge refer to the data channels to the CPU. The memory goes to CPU using the north bridge. And the mouse, keyboard, CD ROM, HDD, ext data flows to the CPU using the southbridge. The northbridge is the portion of the chipset HUB that connects faster I/O buses (for example, an AGP bus) to the system bus. Northbridge chip tends to be larger than the southbridge chip. The southbridge is the HUB that connects to slower I/O buses (for example, an ISA bus) to the system bus. The Northbridge and the Southbridge are known as the chipset on the motherboard. These set of chips collectively control the memory cache, external bus, and some peripherals. There is a fast end of the hub, and there is a slow end of the hub. The fast end of the hub is the Northbridge, containing the graphics and memory controller connecting to the system bus. The slower end of the hub is the Southbridge, containing the I/O controller hub.
Identify the functions of the Northbridge and Southbridge chipsets on a motherboard?
Communication between the CPU and the RAM and PCI Express slots
Why is that the northbridge is hotter than the southbridge?
The northbridge typically handles high-speed communication between the CPU, RAM, and graphics card, which generates more heat due to its intensive processing and data transfer activities. In contrast, the southbridge manages lower-speed peripherals and I/O functions, which generally produce less heat. Additionally, the northbridge's more complex architecture and greater performance demands contribute to its higher thermal output. As a result, it often requires better cooling solutions compared to the southbridge.
What components are connected to the Northbridge chipset and the Southbridge chipset?
there really isn't anything connected to it but the motherboard, its what it dose. here is a picture of what it dose http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1a/Northsouthbridge.svg
Were is south port?
Did you mean southbridge? if so the Southbridge is located on your Motherboard, and is a counter part of a two piece component, the other component is Northbridge. This chip handles communications with sound, USB, the system BIOS and Serials. Originally the connection between the Northbridge and the South Bridge was a PCI Bus, but now it has been left to the Intel (Direct Media Interface) and AMD (Unified Media Interface).
What is the function of the south bridge chip?
The southbridge is a chip that connects thenorthbridge to other components inside the computer, including hard drives, network connections,USB and Firewire devices, the system clock, and standard PCI cards. The southbridge sends and receives data from the CPU through the northbridge chip, which is connected directly to the computer'sprocessor.
Which are two activites are normally controlled by the northbridge part of the chip set?
In order to understand the Nortbridge you have to understand part of it used to be be the Memory Controller Chip (MCC) used to retrieve memory from RAM for the CPU. The MCC was upgraded to not only provide an interconnection between the CPU and RAM but also to be the interconnection between the CPU and other devices on the PC and was renamed the Northbridge. The Northbridge only deals with high-speed interfaces such as the connection to your video and RAM. The Southbridge works mainly with lower-speed devices such as the USB controller and the hard drive controllers. The Northbridge and the Southbridge architecture is called a ChipSet..
Why is the north bridge faster than the south bridge?
The Northbridge coordinate the comunication and is the main interface between CPU, Graphical Interface Card and the Memory (RAM). Those need more speed and are the most used components in the computer. The Southbridge coordinate and is the interface between Storage units, USB ports, expansion cards (not PCI express), and other devices on computer. Those need less speed on data tranmission. The comunication between northbridge and southbridge is coordinate by the northbridge.
What is the north pole and southpole in computer motherboard?
I am not familiar with the term north pole or south pole in relation to a computer motherboard, and think it likely that the question refers to the north bridge and south bridge instead.The north and south bridges are parts of the chipset, which connects the CPU with memory, other direct main bus users (such as advanced graphics cards), and peripheral components.The north bridge provides a bus arbitration service between high performance components (CPU, memory, GPU), while the southbridge provides connectivity to other busses, such as the USB, PCI or IDE bus. In a graphical arrangement with the lesser peripheral components at the bottom of a drawing and the CPU on drawn on top, the northbridge is directly connected to the CPU and, therefore, resides "in the north." The southbridge itself connects to the northbridge, and in the drawing resides "further south."Northbridge and southbridge are conceptual ideas, and may not be implemented as dedicated chips in modern chipsets.
