Why is running a motherboard or processor at a higher speed than that suggested by the manufactrur not recommended?

Because the motherboard/processor is designed with that speed in mind, so overheating and various other issues can occur much more frequently at higher speeds. Also, the process of running hardware at a higher speed than is standard is called overclocking.

Can you put an Intel processor if it only uses AMD processors?

Unfortunately, no. AMD uses the Pin Grid Array socket system, where the processor has many pins that fit into holes on the motherboard. Intel, on the other hand, uses what is called the Land Grid Array socket system, where there are many pins on the motherboard's processor socket that connect with contacts on the processor. They're completely reverse systems, and attempting to use one with the other will result in severe, unrepairable damage to both the processor and the motherboard. Please do not attempt to use any Intel processor with a motherboard that uses AMD processors, or vice-versa.


If there is L2 cache in the processor housing and additional cache on the motherboard the cache on the motherboard is called cache.?

The motherboard doesn't contain cache. The chips do, but the motherboard contain RAM modules. Like when you hear a PC has 512MB of memory. The cache (memory on the chip) follows lines called a bus to the RAM (memory on the motherboard).Answer: Level 3

When main board is called motherboard all the other board that connect to it are called?

There is only one motherboard in a computer, that is the board that houses everything, where you can place card slots,processor,connect pins and other necessities. I think you are referring to cards as boards which they are not, they connecting in the motherboard slots.


How do you find a video card in your computer?

Look for where you plug in your monitor after opening the case. You'll see 1 of 2 things. 1. Either a large card plugged into a slot perpendicular to the motherboard 2. A cable running from the port you plug the monitor in that connects directly to the motherboard (if this is the case you have what is called an "integrated graphics processor")


What is Hardware in computer that contains the central processing unit memory hard disk?

Motherboard consist of slots where Processor & Memory can be attached. There are IDE or SATA ports on Motherboard to connect Harddisks. Motherboard is housed in Computer Cabinet which is called as CPU.
