MATX was released in February of 1997 65438+, with a size of 9.6 inches ×9.6 inches.
The ATX structural standard formulated by Intel Corporation in 1995 is the first major change in computer chassis and motherboard design for many years.
2. The number of slots is different.
Due to the reduction of mATX length, the number of expansion slots of ATX is reduced from 7 to 4 at most.
ATX motherboard adopts 7 I/O slots, and the positions of CPU, I/O slots and memory slots are more reasonable.
Extended data:
AtX solved the problem that puzzled computer assemblers in the previous AT specifications. Other derived motherboard specifications (including microATX, FlexATX and mini-ITX) keep the basic backplane setting of ATX, but the motherboard area is reduced and the number of expansion slots is also reduced.
Since Intel released the original official specification of ATX in 1995, the specification has undergone many changes. The latest version 2.3 specification was released in 2007. The standard ATX mainframe version is 12 inch long and 9.6 inch wide (305 mm× 244 mm). This also allows the standard ATX chassis to accommodate smaller microATX motherboards.
In 2003, Intel released a new BTX motherboard specification as a replacement specification for ATX. However, due to compatibility problems, ATX specification is still the most popular motherboard specification for assembling computers, and only retail computers of large manufacturers adopt BTX, so Intel abandoned the development of BTX in 2006.
ATX is a structural standard, which was formulated by Intel Corporation in 1995. This is the first major change in the design of computer chassis and motherboard for many years. Due to the nonstandard Baby-AT motherboard market and the obsolescence of AT main board structure, Intel announced the extended AT main board structure in June 1995, namely ATX (Advanced Technology Extension) motherboard standard. ATX replaced AT motherboard specification and became the default motherboard specification for new computer systems. AtX solved the problem that puzzled computer assemblers in the previous AT specifications.
This standard has been supported by the world's major motherboard manufacturers and has become the most extensive industrial standard. 1February 1997, ATX version 2.0 1 released; Most motherboards used by 20 10 popular PCs are ATX boards. In 2003, Intel released a new BTX motherboard specification as a replacement specification for ATX.
