Problems solved by technology

This approach causes a waste of components that can still be used on the motherboard, and because the specifications of the external components on the motherboard can be replaced quickly, it may make the external components that can be used continue to be unable to continue to be used on the new motherboard because the specifications have been eliminated. , and must purchase another device with the same function but different specifications
This will consume a lot of cost and time for upgrades, and waste devices that can still be used

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The invention provides a method for upgrading a computer system, the main purpose of which is to upgrade the central processing unit of the system. However, different types of CPUs often require different Northbridge chips. In today's system logic chip design, a multi-functional south bridge chip can usually support multiple north bridge chips with different specifications and can be connected to different CPUs. By making a group of first bus signals communicated between a south bridge chip on a main board and a first system north bridge area on the main board, a design that can be switched to an upgrade module can be used on the original main board The connection uses a new CPU and Northbridge chip. However, the devices that are directly connected to the Northbridge chip and the CPU include system memory devices and accelerated graphics processing devices; if these components are not updated on the upgrade module, the upgraded CPU and the Northbridge chip must be rela...

Abstract

This invention relates to computer update method and device, which comprises the following parts: one host board with multiple north and south bridge chips to connect the first bus signal of first system north bridge area to one bus switch device; first system north bridge area with first central processor, first system memory area, first speeding graph process area and first north bridge chip. It processes one update module, which comprises one update system north bridge area, wherein, the central processor comprises one update central processor, update system memory area, update speeding graph processing area and updating north bridge chip and the host board with one expansion groove .

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer system upgrade method and device, in particular to a computer system upgrade method and device on the motherboard. (2) Background technology [0002] The central processing unit (CPU) is the core component of a computer system, which handles data transfer and calculation, execution of computer programs, and controls all devices in the computer system. In early computer systems, all devices in the computer system were directly connected to the central processing unit through the same bus (bus), and were directly controlled by the central processing unit through commands. [0003] With the advancement of technology, the computing speed of the central processing unit, the bit width of the command and data bus, and the frequency of the transmission clock (clock) have also been continuously improved. The number of devices that can be connected and included in a computer system has increased significantly. At t...
