Topic: Chipset

Ads by Google      Chipset - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia In computing, the term chipset is commonly used to refer to the specialized motherboard chips on a computer or expansion card. The term "chipset" was also widely used in the 1980s and 1990s for the custom audio and graphics chips in home computers, games consoles and arcade game hardware of the time. Examples of PC motherboard chipsets include NVIDIA's nForce chipset and VIA Technologies' KT800, both for AMD processors, or one of Intel's many chipsets (see, for example, [1]). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chipset   (194 words)      The PC Technology Guide A chipset or "PCIset" is a group of microcircuits that orchestrate the flow of data to and from key components of a PC. Interestingly, it was not Intel but rival chipmakers that made the first move, pushing Socket 7 chipsets to 100MHz. Although there have always been other chipset manufacturers - such as SIS, VIA and Opti - for many years Intel's "Triton" chipsets were by far the most popular. http://www.pctechguide.com/27chipsets.htm   (425 words)      Chipset Shootout Representing Intel's 820 chipset is the Aopen AX6C motherboard. For the Intel P6 platform, we have the old mainstay BX chipset represented by the Abit BE6-II motherboard. While the scores remained close, the Intel BX and AMD 750 chipset were arguably the top two performers overall. http://firingsquad.com/hardware/chipset2   (498 words)      Intel® 855 Chipset Family The Intel® 855GM Chipset graphics memory controller hub (GMCH-M) is a highly integrated mobile chipset solution that has been optimized to support the Intel® Pentium® M processor, high speed DDR memory and a Hub interface to ICH4-M.

Since we now know that the chipset handles an incredible amount of data, its important to see which chipsets are performing the best. If you have a poor performing chipset, then any time that your computer is sending and receiving data from the graphics card or main memory, then the system is struggling http://www.pantherproducts.co.uk/Articles/Motherboard/chipset.shtml   (653 words)      Chipset The chips in the chipset are referred to as bridges, because they bridge the components together and ensure that the data flow is directed to the proper place. Both chips share in the task of controlling the PCI and main memory data flow. The paths between each component are referred to as "buses." Buses are simply the paths, or wires, that connect one component to another. http://www.kids-online.net/learn/clickjr/details/chip.html   (286 words)      Chipset An example of an Intel chipset is the i820 or the Intel 820 chipset. When referring the the main motherboard chipset such as the Intel Chipsets, these chipsets will generally include the functions of the CPU, PCI, ISA, USB, etc... Chips or Chips and Technologies is also a computer company. http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/c/chipset.htm   (96 words)      core logic - Glossary - CNET.com The central functions of a computer are usually handled by a set of chips called the core logic chipset. These functions are the system's traffic cops: a cache for instructions, a controller for handling memory, bus interface logic, and data path functions. http://www.cnet.com/Resources/Info/Glossary/Terms/corelogic.html   (42 words)      BlueSmoke - Review : Intel 845G Chipset Both chipsets are duplicates of the 845E, except that the 845G features Intel's integrated Extreme Graphics while the 845GL is a crippled 845G, lacking an AGP slot and support for the new quad-pumped 533MHz FSB. By far, that title belongs to the cores that are integrated into chipsets, which is why both ATI and nVIDIA are scrambling to the market with their respective integrated chipset solutions. All in all, we can only speculate that Intel desires to closely guard its chipsets' reputations for compatibility and reliability. http://www.bluesmoke.net/viewArticle.cgi?id=r54   (497 words)      X-bit labs - Articles We compared the performance of the new Intel chipsets when they work with the memory of various types against that of the previous generation Intel chipsets also working with different types of system memory.

We previewed the upcoming Springdale chipsets from Intel and the new 800MHz bus, which are to be introduced within a couple of months. http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/chipsets   (1246 words)      Chipsets Today and Tomorrow -- Feature by ExtremeTech For years the motherboard chipset industry has been the whipping boy of the computer world. None of the three remaining chipset companies had the R&D advantages Intel did, and even if they pooled their resources they could not touch what Intel could do in terms of money. Seemingly overnight, Intel became the dominant chipset maker in the industry. http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1845537,00.asp   (736 words)      The CGI Book Later on, motherboards with this chipset may be cheaper, but so far they are not, while most of them only have 512k512k L2 cache, restricting the amount of cached memory to 128MB. Read the characteristics of the chipset, paying attention to the ECC support, maximum amount of cacheable memory, the bus speed, and the memory speed and type (which better be PC100 or PC133 SDRAM, not Rambus RDRAM). Keep in mind that certain chipsets are not supported by Linux, or there are known difficulties. http://www.math.sunysb.edu/~comech/tools/CheapBox.html   (7000 words)      SiS748 Chipset Review But it doesn't mean that it's a bad chipset: it just depends on where one uses it. As you can see, SiS first changed the memory clock speed leaving the FSB as is. But it wasn't an original approach - if you remember, AMD formerly denied a possibility of the Athlon XP with FSB 333 MHz, not to mention 400 MHz. The bridge was divided so that the customers could integrate the functions they wanted. http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/roundupmobo/sis748-chipset.html   (1246 words)      SiS735 - a chipset with DDR SDRAM support for SocketA systems The chipsets with the SDRAM memory are working at the maximum performance level they are capable of, and the DDR ones have still some reserve. The SiS chipset differs from other chipsets, as you know, in an untraditional approach: a north and a south bridges are combined in one chip. The major advantage is a possibility to extend a throughput of the bus between the bridges. http://www.digit-life.com/articles/sis735   (2947 words)      PC Perspective - News The core-logic chipset can be described as the central nervous system of a computer, typically handling communications between the system’s processor, memory, graphics ports, storage devices and other I/O connections. First up is the Intel roadmap; we can see that the NVIDIA chipsets are in red, the Intel chipsets in blue and the SiS chipsets are in green.

It's marketing jargon that makes sense, in that a chipset determines a motherboard's and hence computer's capabilities -- everything from what kinds of peripherals you can plug into it to what kinds of CPU and memory it can use. And next to the CPU, the most important part of a motherboard is its core logic chipset. A chipset's functions are divided into two groups, which are usually handled by two chips -- the Northbridge and Southbridge, which you can think of as "inner" and "outer" or adjacent to the CPU and peripherals, respectively. http://www.cpuplanet.com/features/article.php/1490831   (388 words)      DRI Wiki - chipset Specifically, 'chipset' can refer to the particular acceleration engine used in your graphics card (such as 'ATI Rage Pro', 'Voodoo 3', or 'Matrox G400'.) This term is also (more generally) used to refer to the larger chips on your motherboard which interface between the main processor, memory, and the various peripherals. 'Chipset' then, generally refers to a collection of microchips designed together to handle some task. If you're talking about, e.g., the agpgart kernel driver for dma support, this is the chipset people will be asking about (such as '440BX' or 'VIA MVP3'.)
