Best Answer

Output devices are connected to the CPU through the northbridge and southbridge, (collectively called the chipset) but they connect to different devices. The northbridge connects to the graphics output, while the southbridge connects to all other output devices (sound, storage, network, and others).

Is mother board is output?

A remarkably interesting question lurking in there..... To keep it short, it is neither, the motherboard is the centre, the hub, and all the input and output devices must be connected to it. The other devices only become input / output devices because the motherboard (which contains the CPU) either reads data from them or sends data to them.


Why the input output devices are slower than cpu or memory devices?

because of their design

Is a CPU an output or an input device?

A CPU is a central processing unit. It is neither an input nor an output device, but it is usually connected to both kinds of devices. An input device would be a keyboard or a mouse. And output device would be a printer, a hard or floppy drive, or a memory chip in a thumb drive.

What are the meanings of CPU memory input devises output devices and secondary storage devices?

CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. In short it's the processor which is the 'brain' of the computer. Memory is the working area of the computer. Input devices are devices which are used to send/enter data to the computer and output devices are used to show us the results of our work. The secondary storage device is to save our work on to it such as a floppy disk or a memory stick.
