Motherboard (to attach everything to)
Power Supply (for power to the machine)
Processor (must be compatible with motherboard. Computes machine code.)
heatsink (comes with processor, aftermarket coolers are available.)
Memory [RAM] (must be compatible with motherboard. DDR3 is the new standard)
Hard Drive (whether it be a solid state drive or a hard disk drive, this is what the programs and files are saved to.)
OPTIONAL
Optical drive (to install Windows OS and run CDs or DVDs)
Video Card (to boost GPU performance)
Sound card (increase and have fuller, richer sound)
Computer hardware is the components that make up a computer. Computer architecture is the model used to combine the Hardware into a working unit.
A monitor is not normally considered hardware, the internal components of a computer are considered hardware.
Hardware and shareware
The intricate workings of a computer, including its hardware components and software programs, work together to process data, execute tasks, and perform functions. The hardware components, such as the CPU, memory, and storage devices, handle the physical processing and storage of data. The software programs, including the operating system and applications, control how the hardware components interact and execute tasks. The efficient coordination of these components and programs is essential for the computer to function properly and perform tasks quickly and accurately.
hardware and software
The components of computer which can be touched are called hardware component without hardware components computer are not useful.
If you opened up your computer system you would see many different components that do different tasks and the computer will not work without them, if you can touch these objects then it would be classed as hardware (solid components),anything stored on your computer that you cannot touch is classed a Software. Here are a few essential hardware devices: CPU, GPU, PSU, RAM, HDD, FAN.
Computer hardware refers to the physical components of a computer system that are essential for its operation. Examples of hardware include the central processing unit (CPU), which acts as the brain of the computer, and random access memory (RAM), which temporarily stores data for quick access. Other hardware components include hard drives, motherboards, and graphic cards.
Computer has two major components namely: Computer Hardware and Computer Software
Computer hardware is the components that make up a computer. Computer architecture is the model used to combine the Hardware into a working unit.
Hardware is something you can touch. So it is the physical components of the computer.
Hardware
hardware and software
the three major hardware components of a computer are primary memory, secondary memory and object oriented programing.
A monitor is not normally considered hardware, the internal components of a computer are considered hardware.
Do you want a software to collect the computer‘s hardware information from LAN ?
A computer hardware engineer is involved in the design and development of systems and components. This would include hardware such as processors and circuit boards.
