PC Components

Before we plunge into the assembly world it would be nice if we know that his name components such as PC is as follows:

1. familiar with computer systems

there are three important things such as computer systems are from knowledge

- Software is software that consists of application programs and operating systems of computers.

- Hardware is the hardware that consists of component-founder of computer component such as a PC, Laptop, etc..

- Brainware is a person who manage computer is usually called Technical Support, Programmer, and Operator.

in addition there are also several types of computers are among others the following:

- Server.

- PC Desktop.

- Macintosh Power PC.

Pc Components

- Mac Book.

- Notebook.

- UMPC (Ultra Mobile PC).

- PDA Pocket PC (Windows).

- Palm OS PDA.

2. Motherboards

Is a major part of the parent or residing in the CPU. Functioning as a circuit board from a variety of other supporting components.

There are several components of the motherboard include the following:

> CPU Socket.

> Parallel Port Hard Drive / Optical Disk.

> Southbridge chipset.

> Port SATA hard disk.

> Northbridge chipset.

> Port Floppy Disk.

> CMOS / BIOS.

> Power Socket CPU fan.

> CMOS Battery.

> PCI slot.

> Slots for RAM.

> CNR slot.

> Analog Audio Port.

> Front Panel (Power, Reset, HDD Led.)

> Mouse Connector.

> Keyboard connector.

> Port VGA to Monitor.

> Parallel printer port.

> USB port.

> Port Audio (Sound Card).

> Port LAN.

> Digital Audio.

> Serial Port.

> 16 x PCI Express Slot for VGA Card.

should we rethink when buying a motherboard is as follows:

> Nothbrigde chipset and chipset shoutbrigde yabng used.

> FSB is supported.

> CPU socket is used.

> RAM slots are used.

> Components installed onboard.

3. Processor

Processor is the brain of the computer's own CPU while it is a casing for the placement of hardware input.

4. RAM (Random Access Memory)

Memory RAM, to serve as temporary shelters for the program being processed, the data on this memory will be lost if the computer dies. This is the reason why if the electricity goes out or the computer suddenly we turn off all our jobs that have not been saved will be lost. RAM form a long PCB located thereon or IC-IC chips.

5. bebrapa there are many types of RAM in use of them is as follows:

> EDO RAM

> SDRAM

> DDR RAM

> DDR2 RAM

> RD RAM

6. Casing and Power Supply

Here Casing and Power Supply are usually present in a single package and function of the chassis itself is a place to put hardware in the CPU-hardware, while working an electric power supply to every part of your computer to run.

there are some things to consider when buy a Casing and Power Supply include the following:

> Type of Power Supply (AT, ATX, BTX)

> Number of watt Power Supply

7. VGA Card

VGA card is part of the computer, inside the CPU that is important to show the process output to the monitor. Without VGA card, the computer screen will not display anything alias blank. VGA card itself is in the form of an additional slot or motherboard manufacturer or congenital called VGA On Board. But on the computer type is still a long VGA Card Out Board.

there are a few examples of the kinds of VGA card between is as follows:

> PCI

> AGP

> PCI Express x 16

there are some things that should rethink when buying between VGA Card is as follows:

> Chipset (GPU / Graphics Processor Unit (Ati, nVidia, SiS, Intel)).

> Big memory owned.

> Used slot (PCI, AGB, PCI Express x16).

8. Harddisk

Serves as a permanent hard disk storage in which each of us save the data will be stored forever.

there are several kinds of examples of such hard disk is as follows:

> PATA hard drive

> SATA hard drive

> Notebook hard drive

there are also some things to consider when choosing or buy drive them are:

> Port-owned (PATA / IDE, SATA, SCSI).

> Capacity-owned (20, 40, 60, 120, 160, etc.).

> Speed rpm disc (4200, 5200, 7200 rpm).

9. Optical Disk (R-RW-DVD-R, etc.)

This medium serves to read the data contained on a CD (Compact Disk).

there are several types of optical disk to its function is as follows:

Optical Disk

Literacy

CD DVD CD DVD

CD-ROM Yes No No No

CD-RW Yes No Yes No

DVD-ROM drive Yes Yes No No

DVD-COMBO Yes Yes Yes No

DVD-RW Yes Yes Yes Yes

As for other additions such as:

10. TV Tunner

Is a device used as a television receiver on the computer.

11. Modem

Serves as a liaison Internet.

12. Sound Card

Function to display sound data in a media player such as Winamp, etc..
