There are several hardware components which make up a PC.
Here's the basics:
A CPU/Processor
A power supply (nowadays 350W - 500W is the standard)
Memory (for temporary storage)
A Hard Drive (for perm storage)
A video card (Nvidia and ATI are favorite manufactures)
A motherboard which connects all the components together
A keyboard for input
and a screen (Output)
There are other components, such Network Cards and sound cards, and CD/DVD drives/writers as well.
For hard core gamers, some high-end mobos (motherboards) can use two video cards for increased performance.
Some people have actually built there own computers by buying the various components and found out they've saved money doing this !
Hope this helps :-)
