What is a Chipset as Fast As Possible

What is a chipset and how has its function changed over time?

[duviday]

wow. First time i've ever seen a professional actually listen to a consumer and then not just reply, but produce the product asked this quickly. Only saw the questions for chipset fast as possible in the last couple ones. Top work, linus!

I am loving these as fast as possible videos I am currently studying for my comp tia A+ cert (self study) and as I read the chapters I can also watch a one of these videos on the topic and sometimes you have things that are related more to real world (as things I will see as a tech) that aren't what I need to pass the test and what I love about that is I am studying what I need to pass the test while simultaneously prepping for the real world keep them coming bro

southbridge and northbridge as fast as possible.

As I was looking into the prerequisites for Optane Memory that I got at the auction, I found a list of chipset compatibility, and I suddenly thought. What is "chipset"? So I searched on youtube and watched this video. The content is 8 years old but very easy to understand.

TBH techquickie have help me a lot in many ways such as explaining PC parts, their uses and many more. I am very grateful that techquickie is here to help the world explaining things and making a better understading toward PC. Thank you linus!!

@gadiel dadap the socket is the physical connection between the motherboard and CPU. And the chipset is what linus was just talking about

[Archangel]

Those aren't chips Linus, those are crisps.

[shyneguy]

Maybe a techquickie on the difference between DDR3 and DDR4 RAM

2:32 I wonder how airflow is with those cards. That seems to be a thermal throttle station instead of an SLI setup.

"Speaking of..." - time to quit video, just kidding :) or not.

I'm gonna say it again — "What is CPU cache" AFAP

[nephixeon]

An idea for another episode maybe you could explain the meaning of electricity measurements such as watts, amps, and volts. Thanks for all the the great episodes!!!

Chipset is used in many different terms but back when ms-dos have everything separate network card, ide controller and many more the chips etc combined a lot of these controllers into one.

Linus! I have more suggestions!

WAN, LAN and WLAN. (Most people still don't know what WAN is, really.)
Routers, switches and hubs (although routers are in-all ones now a days, maybe you can still do this for sake of knowledge) 
CPU Gigahertz or maybe  CPU vs GPU(parallel processing (why do GPUs have lower Hz ratings, but still function like a CPU | how does a cpu/gpu work, really? how does the "GHz" relate to performance, traffic analogy, etc..)

Oh, and big thanks to LMG for being a swell team and reading comments and taking suggestions from the viewers, like how this video made it!

What about the naming of chipsets? Is there a formatting that acts as a key? By this i mean by looking at the name if you knew nothing about the chip, you could gather some basic info about it? Or does one need to be familiar with each chipset to understand what it brings to the table?

Actually U- and Y-series CPUs (notebooks) are provided both CPU and PCH as one integrated package what increases performance and decreases power usage and heat emission even more. Beginning with Skylake-U and -Y the Image Signal Processor is integrated which enables image from webcam to be processed by it which again increases performance and decreases power usage and heat emission during using webcam software. With all that improvements U-series based notebooks can be really thin and have quite long battery time and Y-series based notebooks can be completely fan-less constructions.

Linus ... I am a regular fan of you channel, because of that I see that in many videos you continuously check your phone. Because you are one of the best presenters in YouTube platform that movement of checking phone is disrupting the flow of the video. just an idea. nothing serious. and thank you for the content provided.

[jmsheadquarters]

I'm in I.T and I Love all 3 of your Channels and watch them every time you release a new video and like them

[HectorMadrigal]

Finally! I've been asking for this one for months.

[PpaStrmpf]

One question from newbie. Is it worth buying now X99 over Z87 motherboards for an average PC user and gamer. I mean it's new tech and DDR4 is more expensive over DD3 etc.
