Motherboards are integral to the operation of any computing system, especially desktop PCs. Here at Connection, we offer boards and expansion options from today’s leading manufacturers. These printed circuit boards (PCB) come in a plethora of configurations and span a pretty wide range of price points. For someone unfamiliar with the available options, that can make it difficult to know what the best choice is. As various motherboards are better suited for certain jobs, it’s important to know what you intend to use it for. If you’re not quite sure where to start, we’re happy to help.
Motherboards act as the communication hub to which virtually every internal component and external peripheral is connected in order to function properly. However, not all motherboards are built the same. Different board options offer varying configurations, CPU compatibility, memory expandability limits (RAM slots), chipsets, and bus speeds. There is a lot to know about these printed circuit boards, and we’re prepared to help you make an informed buying decision based on your specific needs. More expensive motherboards may offer faster bus speeds, while budget options can get you a little bit of everything at an affordable price point....
Things to consider when shopping for a motherboard are:
- Your intended use for the board
- How much RAM you will require
- The kind of CPU you are using or intend to use
- PCI slot requirements
- Form factor
- SATA ports
