Its a northbridge chip. Not really a processor, it communicates with the other chips on the board. Find them on mobos, fingercards and telecom boards. Some boards may have two, a northbridge and a southbridge. Where they are positioned on boards in relation to the rest of the chipsets is how they get the name. Good for gold recovery and easily removed with a spackle knife or thin flathead screwdriver. If removed it will downgrade the price you receive from a buyer.
