Mid Flashcards
__ refers to the building of a computer
system, either to the specifications of a manufacturer or
buyer.
Computer assembly
In the ___computers are assembled with
pre-configured parts.
former case
In the___ a customer can
choose which hardware will be included, either building the computer system from the motherboard up, or simply
choosing certain options.
latter case
__ is far easier today than it was in the past. Many features that are now built into motherboards were once separate
components that required not only assembly into the system, but manual configuration of memory address and IRQ assignment. In the event this was not done correctly hardware and software conflicts would arise that could crash the system or disable the components.
Computer assembly
Another feature that eases computer assembly today is___ . This makes it quite simple to buy compatible components and assemble your own computer system with basic knowledge.
color-coded motherboards and ports
That said, the ___ is highly
competitive and the time saved in assembly will likely be spent
researching the best products to buy for the system.
hardware market
__ a desktop PC is a viable option for many people and may bring significant benefits, such as Learning about computer components and how they fit and work together and Understanding the internal hardware of a computer.
Building or assembling
___a computer gives you flexibility and freedom as to the kind of components you want. You can choose your components from a wide range of manufacturers and a range of other
specifications.
Assembling
Whiles a___ offers you only one choice, an assembled computer offers several choices. One can choose the kind of sound card he wants, the speed of processor and so on. This makes assembled computers perform better, because the best components are chosen.

What was the first disc storage unit?
IBM Model 350 Disk File
Assembling a computer gives you flexibility and _________
as to the kind of components you want
Freedom
Computer assembly refers to the building of a __
computer system
As you know, the __ is the brain of the computer. So first, we have
to choose the brain. While choosing the __, we got two mainstreamed lines, AMD and Intel.
Processor
But what’s the difference between AMD and Intel ?
Both of them are indeed good players in the market with top-notch
performance, but the main difference between both of them are backward
___.
compatibility and price
___aren’t backward compatible as the AMD.
Intel processors
It changes generation and compatibility with every generation update, where’s when we talk about the ___, they’re backward compatible and are compatible with predecessor motherboard.
AMD
Once you select the processor, the next thing you’ve to look at is
the___ . It is another most important component, and while selecting the___ , the first thing you should have to do is, match their socket type with the processor.
Motherboard
It is also known as the “___”. A __ is another most important core component for building a powerful PC. They also use to render the video and output them on your monitor. While selecting the __, you don’t have to match the socket type or chipset like we do in the motherboard - but we have to look at the “___”.
Graphics Card
“video card”
“PCIe interface”
When choosing __you must have a __that has the same speed or good capacity for improved performance of the hardware.
RAM
DDR
DDR2
DDR3
DDR4
DDR5
___ is a core component of your system. It is used to store the operating system and all the other application data in your
system and it helps in booting the system.
Storage
___ is a component that supplies power to at least one electric load. Typically, it converts one type of electrical power to another, but it may also convert a different form of energy – such as”__” ,”__” , or”__” – into electrical
energy.
Power Supply
“solar”
“mechanical”
“chemical”
It is used to store the operating system and all the other application data in your system and it helps in booting the
system.
