1. : The main circuit board containing the vital components of a PC such as the processor & the RAM. - A circuit board or "logic board" inside the computer that contains the central processing unit (CPU), microprocessor support chips, RAM, and slots for adding expansion boards such as audio, scanner, SCSI, and video boards. Multimedia chips such as DSP audio and video chips will increasingly be put on the motherboard rather than on expansion boards.
2. CPU: Central Processing Unit that encompasses a computer's RAM, processing, and control circuitry, including the arithmetic-logic (ALU) unit. Both the ALU and the control units are wholly contained on the microprocessing chip whereas the primary storage is on the mother board or the expansion bus.
3. Hard Drive: The hardware which performs the basic operations on the hard disk - including rotating the disk & reading/writing data to the disk.
4. Monitor: The Monitor is used to display the images which are generated by a PC'sVideo Adaptor .
5. Keyboard: The Keyboard is the main device that we use for entering data into a PC or giving it an instruction to do something specific. The key arrangements resemble that of a traditional typewriter plus lots more additional keys for specific functions.

Not sure what you mean, but it sounds like you want 5 examples of computer hardware, and an explanation of what each does. If so, read on....
CD_ROM drive: This is a removable storage drive that uses compact discs to store and read information. Nowadays, often colocated with a DVD drive.
USB port: A connection for a wide variety of tools, such as digital cameras, keyboards, wireless networks, and flash drives. Any computer you are buying today should have lots of these. I would not be happy with anything less than four USB ports.
Printer: A peripheral device to print stuff. Not as much of duh answer as some might think, printers can be inkjet, laserjet, color, photo, fax, and even a copier, all in one.
Monitor: The screen on which the image is shown. This is integral to laptops, but they can also connect to external monitors or projectors for a larger image.
Mouse....Ahhhh! Quick, jump on a chair, call the cat!

What? Are you asking for 5 examples of computer hardware? Such as the computer and its peripherals, like CPU, monitor, keyboard, mouse, printer, modem, hub, etc?
