Best Answer

In most cases this would be the graphics card but, with the advent of all-in-one processors that have Graphic's Processor Units on them, then the motherboard in conjunction with the CPU handle the graphics.

One small caveat, AMD's APU processors can link with ATI's crossfire video cards, in this case it is a combination of the Video Card and the Motherboard's BIOS, Basic Input Output System.

Which is the main chip of a computer?

The main chip of a computer is the CPU (Central Processing Unit). The CPU handles a lot of the computer's tasks, including graphics (if a Video Card is not installed and if the processor supports it), audio (if you don't have an Audio Card installed), and handling all the communications from the I/O devices (Input/Output devices, such as DVD drives, hard-drives, etc.). The processor is essentially the most important part of the entire computer, as without it, the computer would not boot.
