Does any one know where I can go to find out the exact name and number of chips, capacitors, resistors and other electronic part I would to build a motherboard from scratch. Or if anyone has done it in the past could you give me advise on the project.
I am just doing the project to learn more about the inner workings of a computer. I will be doing it with a group of friends and we have all assembled computers before and have basic knowledge of electronic circuits.

apart from resistors and capacitors
all of the other components will have to be sourced from whichever mobo your gonna base yours on thats if they will sell you them also how will you actually etch a 7 layer board
finally why?

You should not shoot for the systems that you have at home. Try a simple 8-bit system. I would advice you to use Xilinx or Altera to make the board or at least to prototype it.

How many proc design classes have you had thus far?
