I know so little about the pc, and I would like to ask if you could tell me some or all of the things you know about pc's. Anything known by everybody and into depths. I really want to know what goes on in the pc. Please help me to learn more about the computers! Give facts!
Everything about computers!!!!!?suzuki
This question could only be answered with a book....and big one, at that. As a PC Technician/Network Administrator, I get lots of questions about individual components and programs. Here's a brief list of the main components and what they do:
CPU: The central processing unit is the ''brain'' of your PC. It runs the operating system and processes commands. Current speeds are around 3 GHz for single-core processors, and 2.5 - 3 GHz for dual or multi-cores.
RAM: Random Access Memory. It stores everything you're doing while toiling away at the PC. The more RAM you have, the more programs you can run simultaneously. 512 MB to 1 GB is typical. 2 GB is typical for gamers.
Motherboard: The central nervous system of your PC. All other components are plugged into the motherboard.
Video Card: A card housing a special Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), dedicated to ''drawing'' everything that appears on your screen.
Sound Card: Another dedicated card that processes sound-data.
PSU: Power Supply Unit. This converts your outlet's 110-120 Volt alternating current into what the computer needs (12V and 5V streams of electricity to various components).
