Novatech stocks a huge variety of motherboards from industry leading brands such as MSI, Gigabyte, ASUS and more. A computer's motherboard is its main circuit board. If the CPU is the "brain" then the motherboard is the "body", as it connects directly or indirectly to every part of the computer and allows all the parts of your machine to receive power and communicate with one another. There’s just two quintessential things to consider before purchasing a motherboard: size and chipset.
Intel's ATX and microATX (mATX) motherboards have powered computers around the globe for over twenty years. ATX has been adopted as the quintessential motherboard, with a larger size that means it can fit more expansion slots, and USB and serial AT attachment’s (SATA). But its smaller equivalent mATX’s benefits from a reduced size that leaves a smaller footprint and a cheaper price. Whatever your requirements, Novatech can provide it from this expansive range.
Choosing which size fits your computer is the easy part; figuring out which CPU you are using will enlighten you as to what socket you will need on your motherboard. Generally, you will want to use the latest releases to benefit from maximum life-span and future reliability.
The chipset supports each socket, providing continuous connectivity to your CPU. A chipset will define the type and limits of connection to your CPU, making it one of the most important decisions with buying a motherboard. Maybe you want Intel’s Z270, or its improved and upgraded version, Intel’s Z370. If you’re a busy technology professional, the Intel X99 boasts an array of superb features that will feel tailored to you. Whatever your choice, Novatech are here to help.
