What is inside a computer and the main function?

What is a Motherboard?

• The Computers Life

• The main printed circuit board (PCB) in a computer

• Providing connections and support for essential components such as the CPU, RAM, storage drives, expansion cards, and peripherals.

• The largest printed circuit board in a machine's chassis

What is the RAM?

• The RAM is your computer or laptop's short-term memory

• The RAM allows your computer to perform most of its everyday tasks, such as loading applications, browsing the internet, editing a spreadsheet, or experiencing the latest game

• The RAM is used for immediate data storage and retrieval

• Random-Access Memory

What is the CPU?

• the primary component of a computer that acts as its “control center”

• Central Processing Unit

• A CPU has three main parts: arithmatic logic unit (ALU), control unit (CU), and memory unit

• The CPU is the shortest for binary digit

What is ALU?

• The ALU is a key component of a computer's central processor unit

• Arithmetic Logic Unit

• Arithmetic logic unit (ALU) is a circuit board embedded within a computer's central processing unit (CPU)

• Without the ALU, computers would be incapable of performing even the simplest tasks

What is the GPU?

• The GPU is an electronic circuit that can perform mathematical calculations at high speed

• Graphics Processing Unit

• The GPU is somthing that is needed to dedicated GPU for graphics-intensive gaming, editing video, and mining Bitcoin

What is the Control Unit?

• The control unit fetches instructions from the CPU's memory, represented in bits, and translates those instructions into control signals in the form of pulses of electricity or light

• A Central Control Unit is a component in a networked system that gathers and transmits information to manage and control multiple entities

• The control unit acts as the brain of the CPU because it controls and manages the execution of instructions
