Test 01/Graphic Flashcards
Using the image below, which of the following correctly indicates the port labeled as C?
A. SPDIF
B. PS2
C. USB
D. FireWire
A.
This port is the SPDIF (Sony-Philips Digital Interface Format) connection. This is a fiber optic port used to transmit digital audio.
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. PCIe x1
B. PCIe x4
C. PCIe x8
D. PCIe x16
C.
The area circled indicates the PCIe x8 slot on this motherboard
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. PCIe x1
B. PCIe x4
C. PCIe x8
D. PCIe x16
B.
PCIe x4
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. CPU power
B. Fan power
C. Mainboard power
D. AGP
A. CPU power
The area circled indicates the CPU power connector. This is an 8-pin power connector that connects the power supply to the CPU slot.
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. PCIe x16
B. PCI
C. AGP
D. PCIe x8
C
The area circled indicates the AGP slot on this motherboard. The AGP slot is a legacy expansion slot for older video cards. Newer systems use PCIe x16 instead. For the exam, it is important that you can identify the different parts of the motherboard by sight.
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. AGP
B. Mini PCIe
C. CPU slot
D. CMOS battery
B.
The area circled indicates the Mini PCIe slot. This is used to connect internal cards (like WiFi network cards), or motherboard mounted solid-state storage devices. For the exam, it is important that you can identify the different parts of the motherboard by sight.
Using the image of the motherboard below, which of the following correctly indicates the circled area?
A. Audio connector
B. SATA connector
C. Front connectors
D. PATA Connector
C.
The area circled indicates the front connector on the motherboard. This area connectors the various wires to the front panel to include the LED activity lights for the hard disk drive and the power/reset buttons. For the exam, it is important that you can identify the different parts of the motherboard by sight.
Using the image below, which of the following correctly indicates the port labeled as G?
A USB 2.0
B. USB-C
C. USB 3.0
D. FireWire
C
These ports are the USB 3.0 connections. The red coloring notates this. USB 3.0 ports are always shown as a different color to differentiate them from the older and slower USB 2.0 ports. For the exam, it is important that you can identify the different parts of a motherboard’s rear port cluster by sight.
