VIDEO CARD
A video card, also referred to as a graphics accelerator card, display adapter, graphics card, and numerous other terms, is an item of personal computer hardware whose function is to generate and output images to a display.
COMMOMLY CHIPSET USED FOR PENTIUM / CORE 2 DOU
In computing, the term chipset is commonly used to refer to a set of specialized chips on a computer's motherboard or an expansion card. In personal computers based on Intel Pentium-class microprocessors, the term often refers to a specific pair of chips on the motherboard: the northbridge and the southbridge. The northbridge links the CPU to very high-speed devices, especially main memory and graphics controllers, and the southbridge connects to lower-speed peripheral buses (such as PCI or ISA). In many modern chipsets, the southbridge actually contains some on-chip integrated peripherals, such as Ethernet, USB, and audio devices. A chipset is usually designed to work with a specific family of microprocessors. Because it controls communications between the processor and external devices, the chipset plays a crucial role in determining system performance.The manufacturer of a chipset often is independent from the manufacturer of the motherboard. Current manufacturers of chipsets for PC-compatible motherboards include NVIDIA, AMD, VIA Technologies, SiS, Intel and Broadcom. Apple computers and Unix workstations from Sun, NeXT, SGI, and others have traditionally used custom-designed chipsets; now that Sun and Apple have adopted x86 processors, develop custom chipsets for their products.In the 1980s, Chips and Technologies, founded by Dado Banatao (who later founded S3 Graphics), pioneered the manufacturing of chipsets for PC-compatible computers.

MODIFICATION OF THE FUNCTION OF A CHIP
The invention relates to an electronic component comprising a multi-chip housing a first chip which supplies a predetermined function and is housed in the multi-chip housing and a second chip which is housed in the multi-chip housing and interacts with the first chip and external connections of the multi-chip housing.ChipsetIntel The second supplies a modification to the predetermined function supplied by the first chip to the external connections of the multi-chip housing in such a way that only the modified function is available at the external connections. The first chip can be a high-volume chip, whereas the modified function can be that of a special component, whose production quantity does not justify a com
