Motherboards feature various connectors that facilitate the connection of peripherals and components, ensuring the functionality of the overall system. Power connectors include the main ATX power connector, typically a 24-pin socket supplying power to the motherboard, and the CPU power connector, commonly a 4 or 8-pin socket delivering power to the processor. Memory slots, usually DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) connectors, allow the installation of RAM modules for system memory. Peripheral connectors comprise USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports for various external devices, audio jacks for speakers and microphones, and Ethernet ports for network connectivity. SATA (Serial ATA) connectors link storage devices like hard drives and SSDs to the motherboard. Expansion slots such as PCIe and PCI connectors accommodate graphics cards, network cards, and other expansion cards. Additionally, front-panel connectors enable the connection of buttons, LEDs, and audio jacks on the computer case to the motherboard, ensuring seamless user interaction. Familiarity with these connectors is essential for proper system assembly, customization, and troubleshooting within the realm of computer hardware.
