Basic Computer Components and Their Functions

this time the admin will make an article about basic computer components and their functions. Nowadays people are very familiar when they hear the name of a computer, but there are still many people who do not know the computer components, and now the admin will make articles about computer components.

1. CPU casing

CPU casing itself functions to put computer components such as the Hard disk, Power Supply, Motherboard, CD-ROM and so forth. There are so many types of CPU cases according to their needs. There are those from cheap prices and expensive prices.

2. Motherboard / Mainboard

The motherboard functions to put small components such as hard disks, RAM, sound cards, VGA cards, internal modems and so on.

This processor functions to do a calculation and perform a task that is quite important. This processor is located on the socket provided on the motherboard.

4. VGA (Video Graphic Adapter)

This VGA also has a function that is not less important than other components, VGA serves to translate/convert a digital signal from a computer into a graphical display to a monitor screen.

8. Power Supply

The main function of a Power Supply is to change an electric current back and forth to a direct electric current. Another function of the power supply is to minimize damage to various types of computer equipment due to the irregular flow of electricity into computer components.

9. Sound Card

This sound card functions for a data processor into a sound and also as a connecting device such as input or output sound to a computer.

10. Monitor

This monitor functions as a component to display data - data in the form of graphics from a processor to display so that the user or user can see the contents of the CPU display.

well, more or less that's the basic computer components and their functions. Hopefully, this article is useful for all of us.
