Motherboard

The Motherboard is the main printed circuit board in the computer.

It has many sockets into which the CPU, memory (RAM and ROM), cards (sound, graphics, network interface etc) and peripheral devices are connected.

The Motherboard is essential as a means of connecting all of the computer's parts together.

Extra boards, called 'daughter boards' can be plugged into the motherboard.
