circuitry within a computerthat carries out 1. Central the instructions of a computer program by performing Processing the basic arithmetic, logical, control Unit/Processor and input/output (I/O) operations specified by the instructions. The term has been used in the computer industry at least since the early 1960s.Traditionally, the term "CPU" refers to a processor and its control unit (CU), distinguishing these core elements of a computer from external components such as main memory and peripherals. A CPU socket or CPU slot is a mechanical 2. CPU component(s) that provides mechanical and electrical socket/Processor connections between a microprocessor and aprinted Slot circuit board (PCB). This allows the CPU to be replaced without soldering. 3. A motherboard (sometimes alternatively known as Motherboard the mainboard, system board, planar board or logic board,or colloquially, a mobo) is the mainprinted circuit board (PCB) found in computers and other expandable systems. It holds many of the crucial electronic components of the system, such as thecentral processing unit (CPU) and memory, and provides connectors for otherperipherals. Unlike a backplane, a motherboard contains significant sub-systems such as the processor and other components. 4. Heat Sink A heat sink is designed to maximize its surface area in contact with the cooling medium surrounding it, such as the air. Air velocity, choice of material, protrusion design and surface treatment are factors that affect the performance of a heat sink. Heat sink attachment methods and thermal interface materials also affect thedie temperature of the integrated circuit. Thermal adhesive or thermal greaseimprove the heat sink's performance by filling air gaps between the heat sink and the heat spreader on the device. 5. Cooler A cooler fan is any fan inside, or attached to, Fan a computer case used for active cooling, and may refer to fans that draw cooler air into the case from the outside, expel warm air from inside, or move air across a heat sink to cool a particular component. 6. Memory A memory slot, memory socket, or RAM slot is Slot what allows computer memory (RAM) to be inserted into the computer. Depending on the motherboard, there may be 2 to 4memory slots (sometimes more on high-end motherboards) and are what determine the type of RAM used with the computer. The most common types of RAM are SDRAM and DDR for desktop computers
and SODIMM for laptop computers, each having
various types and speeds. In the picture below, is an example of what memory slots may look like inside a desktop computer. In this picture, there are three open available slots for three memory sticks. 7. Memory A memory module is another name for a RAM chip. Card/Memor It is often used as a general term used to y Module describe SIMM,DIMM, and SO-DIMM memory. While there are several different types of memory modules available, they all serve the same purpose, which is to store temporary data while the computer is running. 8. Bridges A northbridge or host bridge is a microchip on some PCmotherboards and is connected directly to the CPU (unlike thesouthbridge) and thus responsible for tasks that require the highest performance.[1] The northbridge is usually paired with a southbridge, also known as I/O controller hub. In systems where they are included, these two chips manage communications between the CPU and other parts of the motherboard, and constitute the core logic chipset of the PC motherboard.
9. AGP slot
10. PCI slot
11. IDE slot
The southbridge can usually be distinguished from
the northbridge by not being directly connected to the CPU. Rather, the northbridge ties the southbridge to the CPU. Through the use of controller integrated channel circuitry, the northbridge can directly link signals from the I/O units to the CPU for data control and access. The Accelerated Graphics Port (often shortened to AGP) is a high-speed point-to-point channel for attaching a video card to a computer'smotherboard, primarily to assist in the acceleration of 3D computer graphics. The Peripheral Component Interconnect slots, commonly known as the PCI slots, refers to a computer bus. The computer bus is used by the computer to connect to peripheral add-on devices, such as a pci video card, network cards, sound cards, tv tuners, firewire cards, graphics cards and many other types of extension cards. Short for Integrated Drive Electronics or IBM Disc Electronics, IDE is more commonly known as ATA or Parallel ATA (PATA) and is a standard interface for IBM compatible hard drives. IDE is different from the Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI) and Enhanced Small Device Interface (ESDI) because its controllers are on each drive, meaning the drive can connect directly to the motherboard or controller. IDE and its updated successor, Enhanced IDE (EIDE), are the most common drive interfaces found in IBM compatible computers today. Below, is

drive, a picture of what an IDE cable looks like, and the IDE channels it connects to on the motherboard. Serial ATA (SATA) is a computer bus interface that connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices such as hard disk drives and optical drives. Serial ATA succeeded the older Parallel ATA (PATA) standard,[a]offering several advantages over the older interface: reduced cable size and cost (seven conductors instead of 40 or 80), native hot swapping, fasterdata transfer through higher signalling rates, and more efficient transfer through an (optional) I/O queuing protocol. CMOS battery serves two purposes: to feed the configuration memory (also called CMOS) and to feed the real time clock of the computer (the one that show the date and the time). A video card (also called a video adapter, display card, graphics card,graphics board, display adapter, graphics adapter or frame buffer[1]and sometimes preceded by the word discrete or dedicated to emphasize the distinction between this implementation and integrated graphics) is anexpansion card which generates a feed of output images to a display (such as a computer monitor). Within the industry, video cards are sometimes called graphics add-in-boards, abbreviated as AIBs,[2] with the word "graphics" usually omitted. The LAN (Local Area Network) card is a 'door' to the network from a computer. Any type of network activity requires a LAN card: the Internet, network printer, connecting computers together, and so on. Today many devices contain a network card, including televisions for their Internet apps, Blu-ray players, mobile phones, VoIP, desk phones, and even refrigerators. LAN cards are hardware devices that can be added to a computer, or they can be integrated into the main hardware of the computer. an optical disc drive (ODD) is a disk drive that uses laser light or electromagnetic waves within or near the visible light spectrum as part of the process of reading or writing data to or from optical discs. Some drives can only read from discs, but recent drives are commonly both readers and recorders, also called burners or writers. Compact discs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs are common types of optical media which can be read and recorded by such drives. Optical drive is the generic name; drives are usually described as "CD" "DVD", or "Blu-ray", followed by "drive", "writer", etc.
17. Hard Disk Drive
18. Floppy Disk Drive
A hard disk drive (HDD)[b] is a data storage
device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material.[2] An HDD retains its data even when powered off. Data is read in a random-access manner, meaning individual blocks of data can be stored or retrieved in any order rather than sequentially. An HDD consists of one or more rigid ("hard") rapidly rotating disks (platters) with magnetic heads arranged on a moving actuator arm to read and write data to the surfaces. A Floppy Disk Drive, or FDD or FD for short, is a computer disk drive that enables a user to save data to removable diskettes. Although 8" disk drives were first made available in1971, the first real disk drives used were the 5 1/4" floppy disk drives, which were later replaced with 3 1/2" floppy disk drives. Today, because of the limited capacity and reliability of floppy diskettes many computers no longer come equipped with floppy disk drives and are being replaced with CD-R, other writable discs, and flash drives.
19. Computer Case
A computer case also known as a computer
chassis, tower, system unit,cabinet, base unit or simply case and sometimes incorrectly referred to as the "CPU" or "hard drive",[1][2] is the enclosure that contains most of the components of a computer (usually excluding the display, keyboard and mouse).
20. Power Supply
A power supply unit (PSU) converts mains AC to
low-voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a computer. Modern personal computers universally use a switched-mode power supply. Some power supplies have a manual selector for input voltage, while others automatically adapt to the supply voltage.
