Chipset
Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000183
A collection of integrated circuits on a motherboard that manages the flow of data between the central processing unit, memory, and peripheral devices. It acts as the communication hub, dictating how components interact and the types of processors and memory supported. Modern chipsets often integrate graphics processing units and other controllers directly into the CPU.
