Well to the first guy, that would be a nice answer if they didn't have two specific names, one being the northbridge and the other being the southbridge. I know the second guy already said that, but I figured I'd give his answer a little backup.

Actually, believe it or not, there is no special name for those chips (as far as I'm aware). Together, they are just called the "chipset"
