The microprocessor, a square-shaped silicon chip, is the brain of the computer system. It processes data through its five major
components: the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), Control Unit (CU), Registers, and Cache memory. Modern processors like Core i3, i5, i7, and
the latest Core i9 are designed for various computing needs, including gaming.
Memory: Storing Data and Instructions
RAM (Random Access Memory) ROM (Read-Only Memory)

RAM is temporary memory that stores data and ROM is permanent memory that retains information even
instructions for quick access by the processor. It comes in when the computer is powered off. It typically stores
various sizes like 1GB, 2GB, 4GB, and more. Information essential instructions for booting up the system and
in RAM is lost when the computer is powered off. performing basic operations.
Expansion Cards: Enhancing Computer
Capabilities

Expansion cards are circuit boards that plug into slots on the motherboard to enhance the computer's capabilities. The
main types include Video Graphics Adapter (VGA) for graphics output, Modem for data transmission, Sound Card for
audio processing, and Network Interface Card (NIC) for network connectivity. These cards fit into expansion slots like AGP
(Accelerated Graphics Port) and PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect).
