What is a chipset?

We define the name of the chipset integrated circuits or groups, motherboard or expansion card. That chipset determines the speed of the computer and transmission of information between individual devices. Each chip comprises two elements, called bridges: north and south. In the most well-known manufacturers of chipsets include Intel, AMD, nVidia и VIA. In this article, we will focus on the first brand products.

What role does the chipset on the motherboard?

The chipset is often confused with the motherboard, but it is only one of its elements. The main objective of the chipset, what has already been mentioned above, It is the organization of the information flow between the individual components. Bridge north meets, in particular, for the operation of the memory, processor bus and FSB, while the south is engaged in hard drives, DVD drive and PCI for connection of peripheral devices.

Intel chipsets for the motherboard LGA 1150

In May 2014 the premiere of the 9th generation of Intel chipsets already. This family were the following models: Z97 and H97, intended primarily for use in computers, designed for games, graphic works, as well as for more demanding users, Motherboards LGA 1150. Models chipsets for home Computer equipment, eg, B85 and H81, still remained in the game, and also fit models 1150. Unlike chipsets 8th generation, consisting of 6 bridges, 9-TCA has just two, but it allows you to overclock the CPU through the multiplier.

What chipset i3 processors, i5 or i7?

The main question which chip to choose under which processor? In the case i7-core answer is simple - the most powerful media and communications processors 9th generation, t. it is. H97 and Z97. If processor i5-core, The best choice is a motherboard based on B85 chipset, possibly, with earlier versions of the Z87 and H87 models. For i3-core suitable motherboard based on the H81 chipset – great for simple works.

What chipset selected for use in the home?

If we are talking about the budget decisions, for home use, the perfect solution here is a motherboard based on B85 chipset. It allows you to overclock the CPU to a low logic system, so you can achieve quite attractive results.

B85, through the use of complementary technologies, как Small Business Advantage, also perfect for small office. To view web pages, less demanding graphics-intensive games and office work is also suitable H81 chipset. The advantages of H81 and B85, than in the case of the later models, is the cost.

Kako chipset for select games?

When it comes to budget decisions, the games we recommend motherboards chipset B85, mainly due to overclocking. Most motherboards with B85 allows you to play the latest games. However, equipment “maniacs” computer games are sets that are equipped with the Z97 motherboards, which gives great opportunities paired with i7 processor.

What chipset choose to disperse?

The most promising model, It offers great opportunities for overclocking, as mentioned above, Z97. A somewhat more modest capabilities offers B85, Although Intel will in the next series of this opportunity to improve.
