All other cards and everything else plugs directly into the motherboard, hence its name.The CPU, RAM, drives, power supply, and more are connected to it.Its function involves integrating all the physical components to communicate and operate together.]]> 2022-11-14 03:04:34 UTC https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382138929 3.CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT keynelsamnoldm https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382141384 The CPU or central processing unit is basically like the brain of computer systems. It processes all the information on a computational level.]]> 2022-11-14 03:06:29 UTC https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382141384 4.RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY keynelsamnoldm https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382142587 RAM or random access memory is a data storage device that can provide fast read and write access. RAM is volatile memory, meaning it loses all the stored data when power is lost.The RAM keeps data ready for the CPU to process. The RAM speed is a big contributor to the overall speed of a computer system.]]> 2022-11-14 03:07:25 UTC https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382142587 5.GRAPHICS CARD keynelsamnoldm https://padlet.com/keynelsamnoldm/gcd8pfeos6uiincs/wish/2382143685 A graphics card is an output device that processes the data from the motherboard and sends the appropriate information to the computer’s screen for display.
You can connect monitors to it using HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, or VGA connectors.
It can also be referred to as a video or display card.

It’s usually a mechanical drive that stores all the data.
Apart from storing data, it can also be used as a boot drive to run the operating system from it. You can install operating systems of many different kinds depending on your needs.
An operating system is a software program that’s installed, making a computer useable like Microsoft Windows, for example. The biggest vulnerability of a mechanical drive is its physically fragile nature.
