How I Teach Computer Fundamentals (Portion 1: The 7 Key Hardware Components)
Hello every person,
I like to Fix computers, but what I seriously really like is to teach other individuals how to fully grasp/Fix computers. I try to simplify any sort of explanation so that even the novice can realize what I am teaching. Right here is how I teach/clarify the seven Key Computer components:
1) Motherboard
The motherboard is the heart of the Computer. Every single other Computer Element either sits on, or connects to, the motherboard in some way. The motherboard is the rectangular colored board that sits at the bottom of the case. The motherboard can also be named “the Key board”, the “technique board”, or the “mobo”.
two) CPU
The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the brain of the Computer. It runs the Software and processes the information that you are operating on. The CPU sits on top rated of the motherboard and is covered up by a heat sink and cooling fan.
three) RAM
RAM (Random Access Memory) holds or remembers the information of the Software that you are at the moment operating. The RAM modules (“sticks”) are lengthy and thin and appear adore a brief ruler. Each RAM module snaps into a corresponding slot on the motherboard.
four) Video Card
The video card creates the pictures that look on the Computer monitor. Nearly all contemporary day video cards attach to either the AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) slot, or to the PCI Express (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) slot on the motherboard.
five) Energy Provide
The Energy Provide supplies the Energy that the Computer requirements. All wires going from the Energy Provide go either straight to the Computer components or to the motherboard. The Energy Provide sits at the top rated of the case.
6) Hard Disk Drive
The Hard Drive holds all of your data (even although the Computer Energy is off). Whilst you turn on the Computer, the Software and information load from the Hard Drive into the RAM. The Hard Drive slides into the Hard Drive bay in your Computer case.
7) Optical Drive
The optical drive utilizes a laser to read (play) or write (record, burn) CDs and DVDs. The optical drive sits in the front bay of the Computer. Some optical drives are “read only” media (ROM), even though other optical drives are “read and write” (RW) capable.
