Computer componets

x`

It goes from the computer too you physically such as: Game controllers that vibrate (an action happens in the game and it sends it over to you with a vibrate) A printer(it has an image online and it prints it out for you) Headphones (you listen too something that's on the computer) Projector (it projects on to wall/screen)

Where is it locate: its located where the out out devices is, for example if projecting something from the computer to the screen it would be located in the projector.

Random Access Memory (RAM)

Where is it located: you can find it in the computer case or on the motherboard.

RAM stands for random access memory. Is your computer's storage and memory RAM also communicates instructions and data to the processor. When you turn off your computer, it is erased. Despite the fact that RAM is smaller than the hard disc, RAM is superior since it is faster.Measure storage by bytes. There are 8 bits in a byte

Secondary Storage (Hard Drive and Solid State Drive)

Where is it located: inside the computer case either on the side or on the bottom.

It stores your data and provides a read-write mechanism. Despite the fact that the hard disc is larger and has more storage than the RAM, The best alternative is to use RAM because hard drives are substantially slower than RAM. Hard drive measures in byte kilobyte megabyte gigabytes terabytes, but they are sold by gigabytes.

Microprocesser (Cpu)

it is located on your PC on top of the mother board

It does computations and comparisons. It is known as a central processing unit, or "CPU." It obtains instructions and data from RAM and the hard drive. It's also linked to the motherboard. It's a professor the CPU is measured in speed. It's also 1 cycle per second is one hertz. its measured by hertz kilohertz gigahertz megahertzterahertz. but usually sold by giga hertz.

Input devices

input devices are devices that An action you do physically and it goes into the computer such as: Mouse (clicking: your moving and clicking the mouse and it goes into the computer) Mic (you speak and into the mic and it goes into the computer)

where is it located it depends on what the in put devices is fpr example if its clicking it would be located in the mouse if it was a keyboard it would be in the keyboard.

Expansion Cards (Network Card, Video Card, Sound Card Graphics card)

Where is it located: They have their own slot on the motherboard. or onto something called a "riser" that is attached to the motherboard".

Sound card: Produces sound Video card: Allows you to watch videos on your computer Network Card: Allows computers to connect to a wireless network. A graphics card is connected to the motherboard and allows your computer to show you a more clear screen. You also buy a motherboard with a graphics card. But one downside is that if you want to switch your graphics card you would have to switch the motherboard as well. But a graphics card is optional.

Mother Board

Where is it located: It is located in the computer case

The motherboard (main board) connects everything. It enables all of the other components to converse and communicate with one another. The RAM and hard drive would be unable to send instructions to the processor without the motherboard. The majority of modern consumer and enthusiast PCs are based on a standard ATX motherboard measuring 305 x 244 mm (12 x 9.6 in). Because of the size of this board, customers can maximize expansion and customization choices.

Power supply

Where is it located. You can find it on at the back of computer usually at the top.

A power supply is the second most important component in a computer after the motherboard, its is the backbone of a computer. it allows your computer to turn on and without it your computer will not turn on. It runs on AMPS and on an average 18A
