5. Adapter card connectors. Adapter card connectors are sockets on the system board into which adapter cards are installed. Your system board has four adapter card connectors (for the 2163 machine, there is an additional AGP video connector). One of these connectors is for an ISA card and three are for PCI cards. Since two of these connectors are shared (one ISA and one PCI next to it), only three cards (excluding the AGP video card) can be installed at any time. 6. Adapter cards. Adapter cards add to your computer's capabilities. 7. Adapter card slots. Adapter card slots are the holes in the back of the tower that permit external access to adapter cards. 8. System board. The system board is the main circuit board in your computer. It contains the processor, also known as the central processing unit (CPU), and the system battery. It also contains sockets for memory modules, connectors for adapter cards, and connectors for the cables that carry data to and from drives. 9. Power supply. The power supply provides the electricity that is used by the other hardware components in your computer. This model may come with a 95W power supply. 74
