The CPU is also known as the processor or microprocessor. The CPU is responsible for executing a sequence of stored instructions called a program
- 9What is the purpose of the RAM?Other than the specific applications that hog your RAM, if you think bumping your RAM from 3GB to 8GB is going to increase the speed of a regular application-like a video game—you should think again. The only thing that additional RAM does is allow your computer to do more things at once, not actually make it faster
- 10What is the purpose of ROM?Stores a program used to boot up the computer. This is called the bootstrap loader
- 11What is the purpose of the Hard Drive?Storage is the hard drive's responsibility. Everything you keep on your computer is on a hard drive. Not just documents, pictures, music and videos. Your programs, your preferences, even your operating system—they're all stored on your computer's hard drive.
