What is the main components of Computer System?

Answer 1

CPU having
Processor,
Primary Storage - RAM,
Secondary Storage Device* - HDD, Floopy, CD, DVD ....
*Optional

And In Peripherals at least
1 Input Device - better to have key board
1 Output Device - can use Monitor

rest all you can add as per your requirement.......

Answer 2

Computer System Component

Case - The box all the parts (except monitor, keyboard, mouse, and printer) are stored in... unless you have a notebook or laptop computer. In most instances, the case is nothing more than personal preference.

Mother Board - The main printed circuit board in the computer, which the CPU (see below) plugs into; as do all of the "cards" - sound card being the most common, scanner cards, etc., the bus, memory sockets, keyboard controller and supporting chips. This is the central nervous system of your computer.

CPU (Central Processing Unit) - This is the actual "brains" of the computer. It does the calculations, the processing of data, the reading (and interpreting) of the computer code and converts it to whatever output we or the program tells it.

RAM (Random Access Memory) - Like pieces of scratch paper that information is temporarily stored on ONLY WHILE you are actually working on the computer.

Disk Controller - This allows your computer to interact with your disk drive storage devices... whether they are hard disk drives, floppy disk drives, CD-ROMS, or Tape drives a controller is required.

Hard Disk Drive - A STORAGE device, NOT MEMORY! This is like a filing cabinet - no more, no less. Retrieval is faster, and finding things is usually easier, but it is still just a filing cabinet. : 1) Megabytes per second, and 2) RPM's (the higher the number the faster - in both cases).

Floppy Disk Drive - Either 5 1/4" or 3 1/2". An inexpensive way to save, transport, and backup data and programs which are small. .

Video Display Adapter - Unlike your eyes, it can ONLY OUTPUT the computer information in the form of a video signal that is human readable (via the monitor).
.
Monitor - The actual display you see the words, pictures, and data on. There are two main types: analog and digital. Then things get more complicated. "dpi" is Dots Per Inch, the smaller the better the resolution. A .28 dpi is generally adequate for 15" monitors, .26 for 17", and .25 for larger monitors. 15" and 17" monitors are the most common, with 19" coming down in price and improving in quality.

Input Device - Keyboard, Mouse, Digitizer, Scanner, Pen, Digital Camera, etc. Basically any device that, once connected to the outside of the computer, can directly input (add or change) data in the computer.

Modem - A device which hooks your computer up to the telephone line, allows you to connect to the Internet, as well as directly to other computers in different cities, states, and country's.

Printer - The most commonly known "Output device" (the monitor is not commonly thought of as such, but really is). This allows you to print to paper, transparencies, film, even coffee cups and t-shirts (depending on the type of printer you have).

Optional Equipment - Tape Backup Devices, Audio Adapters, CD-ROM drives, removable drives, digital cameras, etc.

Answer 3

Primary Components Of Computer

Answer 4

Do you mean what ARE the main components of A Computer System?
The four primary components of a computer system are:
1. Input - Input devices send data and instructions to the central processing unit.
2. Output - Central processing unit executes computer instructions. Memory holds data and programs temporarily.
3. Processing - Output devices make processed data available to the user.
4. Secondary Storage - Secondary storage devices store data and programs permanently.

Answer 5

The main components are: Input device, CPU, and Output device.
Input device contains hardware such as eg: keyboard, output device is for eg: monitor where u can see o/p.
The main component is CPU. CPU contains 3 sub-sections. The ALU(airthmatical and logical unit), Memory unit, and Control unit.

Answer 6

Main components of a computer in desktop form would be mainboard,hard drive, cd drive, processor, memory. Other components would be processor cooler, case. Interface would be the monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

Answer 7

The main components of a computer system are,
Monitor
Keyboard
Mouse
CPU
the CPU must consist of the following thing,
RAM (256mb or 512mb) the higher it is good
Hard disk (40GB or 80GB or 160GB) the higher it is good
windows xp home or proffesional ,professional is well advanced
AGP card for Graphics
Cd or DVD drive

Answer 8

1. Processor - Central Processing Unit (CPU)
2. Motherboard (Printed Circuit board)
3. Memory - 2 types
a) Primary Memory - RAM (Random Access Memory -
Temporary memory)
b) Secondary Memory - Hard Disk (Permanent Memory)
