Much the same as they do today, but only with a larger architecture due to cruder methods and then as yet to be developed materials for better performance.

silver? I can't think of any use. conductors on chip are usually aluminum, polycrystalline silicon, or copper. bond wires are usually aluminum or gold. gold bond wires on aluminum pads are sometimes unreliable because of formation of "purple plague" in the weld causing high resistance and sometimes intermittent connections. silicon? that is the semiconductor used to construct all the components.
why we use silicon chips in computers?Silicon is cheap, it comes from sand.Silicon has a very wide operating junction temperature range (-55C to +150C).Silicon is very easy to process to make transistors and ICs.Silicon dioxide is an insulator, no other semiconductor has a solid insulating oxide.When circuits are built on a silicon chip they are either analog or digital building block circuits.The digital building blocks naturally build computers (especially now that we have building blocks as large as whole multi-core CPUs, etc.).Before semi-conductors were used in computers, they had to use vacuum tubes which cost a lot, took up a lot of space, burned out quickly and so were unreliable, and used a lot of electricity. We could not have the modern computer without chips.they are;small,compact and portable. Silicon is the easiest elemental semiconductor currently usable to make ICs with. One of its most important properties is its oxide and nitride are insoluble solid insulators, this is not true for either germanium or carbon the other elemental semiconductors. Also silicon has a good operating temperature range (junction temperature up to 150C), germanium has much lower range and although carbon (as diamond) has much higher range (junction temperature up to 600C) it is too brittle for current process machines. All other semiconductors are alloys and are tricker and more expensive to process than elemental ones. Most important silicon is almost free, it can be extracted from any sand, the parent rock of sand, and of course sandstone which is made of sand.
Silicon transistors are approaching the point where further miniaturization will no longer be possible. It is expected that once silicon transistors reach 16nm size, optical lithography will no longer be capable of making smaller images. Thus, unless all progress in transistor size is terminated and performance improvements are limited to processor architecture alone, it is very likely that chip manufacturers will move to graphene as a way to get smaller transistors. However, graphene has flaws. One example is that graphene transistors are very "leaky" compared to those made of silicon- that is, more charge can escape from them. This means that graphene chips are likely to run much hotter than silicon chips.
Because it is made up of silicon.
Silicon chip
A silicon chip is a semiconductor crystal matrix - a solid. As such, the terms solute and solution do not apply to it.
Canadian,Imants Lauks invented the silicon chip blood analyzer in 1986.
Silicon chip, micro-chip, integrated circuit
The silicon chip was invented in 1961. It was invented by Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce, and it revolutionized miniature technology.
it know as the silicon chip

Wafer
Its main component is a single element called Silicon (a Silicon chip) but this will have other elements deposited on it, comprising the circuitry, diodes and transistors.
The silicon chip is in many devices today....ex. mp3 players. It was a major breakthrough because it allowed more technology to be stored in portable or smaller devices. Almost everything has a silicon chip..even your cell phone. Particularly the computer industry it was important to forthe same reasons. The iPad is a computer, so is the iPhone. But they wouldn't be possible without the silicon chip:)
