Hardware refers to the physical components of a computer system. These are
the tangible parts that you can touch and see, as opposed to software, which
consists of the programs and applications that run on the hardware. Here’s a
more detailed explanation of some key hardware components:
Central Processing Unit (CPU): Often called the brain of the computer, the
CPU executes instructions from software to perform tasks. It processes data
and controls the other components of the computer.
Random Access Memory (RAM): This is the computer’s short-term memory. It
temporarily stores data that the CPU needs to access quickly while performing
tasks. More RAM allows a computer to run more programs simultaneously and
handle more data quickly.
Hard Disk Drive (HDD): A traditional storage device that uses spinning disks
to read/write data. https://clicknorder.pk/ Solid State Drive (SSD): A newer,
faster type of storage that uses flash memory to store data. It has no moving
parts, making it more durable and faster than HDDs.
Motherboard: The main circuit board that houses the CPU, RAM, and other
components. It also provides connectors for other peripherals. It allows all the
parts of the computer to communicate with each other.
Graphics Processing Unit (GPU): A specialized processor designed to accelerate
graphics rendering. GPUs are essential for tasks that require complex graphics,
like gaming, video editing, and 3D rendering.
Power Supply Unit (PSU): Converts electricity from a wall outlet into a usable
form for the computer. It powers all the internal components.
Input Devices:
Keyboard: Allows you to input text and commands into the computer. Mouse:
A pointing device that lets you interact with objects on the screen. Output
Devices:
Monitor: The screen that displays images, videos, and other visual output from
the computer. Printer: Produces physical copies of digital documents and im-
ages. Cooling System: Keeps the computer from overheating. It can include
fans, heat sinks, and liquid cooling systems.

Network Interface Card (NIC): Allows the computer to connect to a network,
either through a wired connection (Ethernet) or wirelessly (Wi-Fi).
These components work together to perform the operations of a computer, from
running applications to connecting to the internet, and much more.
