What is 'north-bridge'?
NorthBridge or North Bridge may refer to Australia Northbridge, New South Wales, a suburb of Sydney. It can also be referred to as Northbridge, Western Australia, a suburb of Perth.
Were is south port?
Did you mean southbridge? if so the Southbridge is located on your Motherboard, and is a counter part of a two piece component, the other component is Northbridge. This chip handles communications with sound, USB, the system BIOS and Serials. Originally the connection between the Northbridge and the South Bridge was a PCI Bus, but now it has been left to the Intel (Direct Media Interface) and AMD (Unified Media Interface).
What is the purpose of the northbridge?
It depends on the type of CPU used. Originally, the northbridge chip served as a memory controller, AGP bus controller, and system bus. It interfaced with the CPU, the RAM, and the southbridge chip. The southbridge connected to about everything else. But most of the northbridge functions are now done by the CPU in many computers. The memory controller and sometimes even graphics are in the CPU these days.
What is the differences between the southbridge and the northbridge?
The north and south bridge refer to the data channels to the CPU. The memory goes to CPU using the north bridge. And the mouse, keyboard, CD ROM, HDD, ext data flows to the CPU using the southbridge. The northbridge is the portion of the chipset HUB that connects faster I/O buses (for example, an AGP bus) to the system bus. Northbridge chip tends to be larger than the southbridge chip. The southbridge is the HUB that connects to slower I/O buses (for example, an ISA bus) to the system bus. The Northbridge and the Southbridge are known as the chipset on the motherboard. These set of chips collectively control the memory cache, external bus, and some peripherals. There is a fast end of the hub, and there is a slow end of the hub. The fast end of the hub is the Northbridge, containing the graphics and memory controller connecting to the system bus. The slower end of the hub is the Southbridge, containing the I/O controller hub.
What is north pole and north pole in motherboard?
I am not familiar with the term north pole or south pole in relation to a computer motherboard, and think it likely that the question refers to the north bridge and south bridge instead.The north and south bridges are parts of the chipset, which connects the CPU with memory, other direct main bus users (such as advanced graphics cards), and peripheral components.The north bridge provides a bus arbitration service between high performance components (CPU, memory, GPU), while the southbridge provides connectivity to other busses, such as the USB, PCI or IDE bus. In a graphical arrangement with the lesser peripheral components at the bottom of a drawing and the CPU on drawn on top, the northbridge is directly connected to the CPU and, therefore, resides "in the north." The southbridge itself connects to the northbridge, and in the drawing resides "further south."Northbridge and southbridge are conceptual ideas, and may not be implemented as dedicated chips in modern chipsets.

What is the law name for Northbridge Curfews?
northbridge curfew laws
What is the purpose of the Northbridge on a motherboard?
North bridge connects the processor, memory and video card. South bridge connects all the peripherals whether it is connected using USB, ISA, and PCI connector. Note. South Bridge is also connected to north bridge
Why is the north bridge faster than the south bridge?
The Northbridge coordinate the comunication and is the main interface between CPU, Graphical Interface Card and the Memory (RAM). Those need more speed and are the most used components in the computer. The Southbridge coordinate and is the interface between Storage units, USB ports, expansion cards (not PCI express), and other devices on computer. Those need less speed on data tranmission. The comunication between northbridge and southbridge is coordinate by the northbridge.
Which part of the chipset connects directly to the processor the northbridge or southbridge?
NorthBridge
Why is south bridge called South bridge?
because it is typically drawn below (south of on maps) the north bridge when drawing schematics.
