Types of Computer Components and explanation


Cashing
Cashing a computer is a computer component that serves as the place we put or attach the motherboard, power supply, optical disc drive, hard disk, and so forth. Computer case is distinguished by its size which is often referred to as the form factor (such as ATX and Micro ATX) form factor, which refers to the form factor motherboard that supports

Power Supply
Like a car that can not run if you do not have fuel, then a computer would not be able to flame or function if it has no power supply or PSU (Power Supply Unit) is. Power supply is a computer component that serves to supply electrical power to other computer components such as motherboard, hard disk, optical disk drives, and so forth.

Motherboard / Mainboard
Motherboard is a computer component where we plug in or install computer components such as the processor, video card, sound card, hard disk, and so forth. The motherboard serves to connect each computer components that can communicate with each other. Each motherboard has its specifications respectively, specs like processor supports what and how much capacity is the maximum RAM supported by the motherboard.

Processor
If a computer is like as a human being, then the processor is the human brain. Processor or CPU (Central Processing Unit) is a component of the duty to execute computer instructions or perform calculations. Before buying a processor you should find out in advance what processor socket motherboard is owned by you, whether socket AM2, socket LGA, or so forth.

RAM
RAM stands for Random Access Memory, which is a computer component that serves to store data from a program that we are running and the data can be accessed randomly or random. Before buying a RAM you should find out in advance what the RAM slot motherboard owned by you, whether SDRAM, DDR, DDR2, DDR3 or others.


Memory
When you wish to buy a notebook, we must offer products with different memory capacities vary. The question is "whether the umpteen MB memory that is enough" or not enough memory capacity can be measured from the use of Operating System and application types that will be used. Suppose you want to use Windows Vista, which as we know it requires at least 512 MB of memory. So look for a notebook that has at least 1GB of memory. Because if the system is experiencing shortage of memory, it will use the hard drive as memory. And it can slow down computer performance. The main point is the more memory you have, the better. Unlike the processor can not be upgraded, memory on a laptop can be added later on.
Hard Drive
Currently, there are two types of storage media drive and SSD (Solid State Drive). When you talk of excellence performance issues, SSD is superior because it is fast, quiet, and lower power consumption than traditional hard drives that we use. But the price of SSD is still very expensive. Therefore, it is still using the laptop hard drive.
For its own capacity, if you will use the laptop for storing videos, music and photos, then look for a large-capacity hard drive, such as 320 GB. But if not great was not a problem, because it's been many large-capacity portable hard drive that can be used as backup storage. In addition, the hard drive can be upgraded later on.
Video Card
 There are two types of video cards are integrated and dedicated. Video Card integrated video card is memorynya utilize main memory (RAM). While the dedicated use their own memory. For performance, a dedicated obviously better. Therefore, a dedicated video card is better used for gaming use. But it does not mean that integrated games can not be used. Still be, Just be a lackluster performance when used to run heavy games.
Hardisk
Hard disk is a component of the computer where we store data. The greater the capacity of the hard disk that we have on our computers, the more data that we can also save on our computers are. Before buying a hard disk you should find out in advance what the hard disk interface that is owned by your motherboard, whether IDE, SCSI, SATA, or so forth.



Optical Disc Drive
Although without an optical disc drive of the computer we can flame or function, but it seems no one is computer components such as computer isolated from the outside world, isolated from the outside world means we will have difficulty if one wants to copy data, install programs , watch VCD or DVD movies, which are all stored in a CD or DVD. Optical Disc Drive can be either CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, DVD-RW, Blu-Ray, or so forth. Before purchasing an optical disk drive you should find out first what the interface that is owned by your motherboard, whether IDE, SATA, or so forth.

Monitor
Monitor is a computer component that serves to display images that are output from the video card. Computer monitors are widely available in the market today is a CRT monitor (the monitor tube) and LCD monitors, but nowadays most people prefer using the LCD monitor (especially in offices) for LCD monitor except it looks more modern, it also has Other advantages are space-saving and power-saving.

Keyboard
Keyboard input is a computer component that serves as a tool to type something. In addition to the standard keyboard, computer keyboard now has an assortment of models, such as the mini keyboard, flexible keyboard that can be folded, wireless keyboard that uses bluetooth, and so forth.

Mouse
Mouse input is a computer component that serves to move the cursor on our screen and to click on something like the buttons in an application program. Mouse is also an assortment of models, there is a standard mouse, mouse for gaming purposes, a wireless mouse that uses bluetooth, and so forth.
