Introduction

A personal computer (PC) is a multi-purpose computer whose size, capabilities,

and price make it workable for separate use. PC’s operated directly by an end user,

rather than by a computer expert or technician. Computer time-sharing models that

were typically used with larger, more expensive minicomputer and mainframe

systems, to enable them be used by many people at the same time, are not used

with PCs.

Processing devices

CPU: The CPU (Figure: 1.1) is a silicon chip which contains thousands of

electronic circuits. Has a fan to keep it cool. The chip is also known as a

microprocessor.

(Figure: 1.1)

Function/Work: CPU processes the data in the computer. Sends

messages to and from the input devices, output devices and storage devices.

Motherboard: Motherboard (Figure: 1.2) is PC‘s main printed circuit board

which is Setup inside the System Unit.

(Figure: 1.2)

Function/Work: The motherboard houses the processor (CPU), memory

(RAM), buses and other components e.g graphic cards, sound cards, PCI

cards (like USB, scanners) to plug into.

RAM: RAM - Random Access Memory (Figure: 1.3) is a series of chips on the

motherboard.

(Figure: 1.3)

Function/Work: Control system software and application software

commands and instructions. Temporary holding area for data while

processing occurs.

Input/output devices

Input Device: Input device is a computer hardware equipment used to provide

data and control signals to an information processing system such as a computer or

information appliance.

Types of Input devices: Keyboards (Figure: 1.4), Mouse (Figure: 1.5),

Scanners (Figure: 1.6), Digital Cameras (Figure: 1.7) etc.

(Figure: 1.7)

Output Device: An output device is computer hardware that uses received data

and commands from a computer in order to perform on a task. This leads to the

results of data processing carried out by an information processing system which

converts the electronically generated information into human-readable form.

Types of Input devices: speakers (Figure: 1.8), Projectors (Figure:

1.9), Monitor (Figure: 2.1), Printer (Figure: 2.2) etc.

Requirement for my PC

Monitor: 20" Inch LED Smart Monitor

RAM: 4GB

Processor: 7th Generation Intel Core™ i5

SSD: 120GB

HDD: 1TB

Speakers: 2.0 stereo speaker/Normal Speaker

Why I choose the specific devices for my ‘ultimate’ pc?

As I’m a “Computer Science (Network Security)” Student, so I don’t need

high/latest requirement for PC. I just have to focus on system performance for

that I use SSD which is improve my system unit. It will make my PC 35%

faster. If I’m talking about RAM & Processor then those are okay for my work.

So, that’s the reason I’m choose the specific devices for my ‘Ultimate PC’.

Who should get your ‘ultimate’ pc and why?

For who do work with Microsoft offices, Internet Browsing and all kind of

normal work (Like Business Man, Shop Store etc.) And who are like me they

should get this PC. Because, the Requirement I used that’s enough for those

kind of work performance.

The price range of my ‘ultimate’ pc

Item Price(Approx.) Monitor 250RM

Mouse 24RM

Keyboard 40RM

Motherboard 350RM

Power Supply 200RM

Casing 250RM

RAM 160RM

Processor 760RM

SSD 240RM

HDD 370RM

Speakers 30RM

So, overall my PC’s Price range is approximately “2700RM –

3000RM”
