Inside A Computer

1. Hard Drive

   • 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.

2. CPU

   • A CPU is the part of a computer system that is commonly referred to as the "brains" of a computer. The CPU is also known as the processor or microprocessor.

3. PSU(Power supply)

   • A power supply unit converts mains AC to low-voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a computer. Modern personal computers universally use switched-mode power supplies.

4. RAM

   • Random-access memory is a form of computer data storage that stores data and machine code currently being used.

5. Motherboard

   • A motherboard is the main printed circuit board found in general purpose microcomputers and other expandable systems.

6. Heat Sink

   • A heat sink is a passive heat exchanger that transfers the heat generated by an electronic or a mechanical device to a fluid medium, often air or a liquid coolant.
