The motherboard in a computer connects all the components together. A computer case protects the motherboard it is the plastic or metal that surrounds the tower. The CPU is directly attached to the motherboard, a fan and heatsync tape keep heat from damaging the board. Motherboards are often damaged by static electricity or power surges using a surge protector or uninterruptible power supply will help prevent electrical damage.
