Hardware?
Hardware applies to all tangible parts of a computer:

their electrical, electronic, electromechanical and mechanical, cable, cabinets or boxes, peripherals of all kinds and any other physical elements involved, in contrast, software is intangible and is called software.

Hardware Types
Hardware components and devices to any of the

above functions, ARE: Processing: Central Processing Unit or CPU Storage Memory Input: Input Devices (E) Departure: Peripheral output (S) Input / output: mixed Peripherals (E / S)

Central Processing Unit

The CPU, English acronym for Central Processing

Unit is the key component of the computer responsible for interpreting and executing instructions and processing dates. In modern computers, the function of the CPU performs one or more microprocessors. It is known as a CPU microprocessor is manufactured as a single integrated circuit.

RAM Memory
Random Access Memory. The term is related to

the presenting feature access times equal to any of their positions (either for reading or writing). This feature is also known as "direct access" as opposed to sequential access.

Dynamic RAM
Presentation is more common in modern computers (desktops,

servers) are printed circuit boards with memory chips soldiers by one or both sides, plus other elements such as resistors and capacitors. This card has a series of metal contacts (with a gold coating) that allows electrical connection to the memory bus memory controller on the motherboard. Among the latest technologies for embedded DRAM memory modules used in the RAM are: SDR SDRAM DDR SDRAM SDRAM DDR2 SDRAM DDR3 The standards currently used are: DIMM SO-DIMM

Special RAM
There RAM with features that make them individuals,

and not normally used as computer main memory, among them we can mention: SRAM: Short for Static Random Access Memory. It is a type of memory faster than DRAM (Dynamic RAM). NVRAM: Abbreviation for Non-Volatile Random Access Memory. Nonvolatile RAM (keeps the information in the absence of power). VRAM: Abbreviation for Video Random Access Memory. A type of RAM that is used in computer graphics cards.

Peripherals
Means units or peripheral devices that allow the

computer to communicate with the outside, that is, both income and externalizing dates. Information and peripherals are operations that allow known as input / output (I / S ) .

Devices of input (E)

In this category are those that allow the entry of

information in general from some external source or by the user. Input devices provide the primary means to transfer to the computer (more properly to the processor) information from any source, either locally or remotely.

Information output devices (S)

Are those that allow broadcast or output the

information resulting from the operations performed by the CPU (processing). Output devices provide the primary means to externalize and communicate information and processed data, either the user or to other external, local or remote.

Mixed Devices (E / S information)

They are devices that can operate both ways: both

input and output. Typically it can be mentioned as peripheral or mixed I / O to: hard drives, floppy disks, magnetic tape, reading and CD / DVD , ZIP disks, etc.

Graphics Hardware
The graphic hardware is basically what the

graphics card. These components have their own memory and processing unit, the latter called graphic processing unit (or GPU, English acronym for Graphics Processing Unit). The basic objective of the GPU is to perform the calculations associated graphics operations, primarily in floating point, 16 thus freeing the main processor (CPU) of this expensive task (in time) so that it can perform other functions more efficiently.

Conclusions:
All devices that interact in a case have an important role for

us to receive information on a screen. Although most people do not know some computer terms, they come to understand what the goal of having a PC at home. We believe that the majority of young people seeking a PC with special feature, such as having a high resolution graphics for games, that is quick and other features. That's why you must know some hardware to not be surprised when buying. Worldwide, there are many companies using pc and therefore require professionals who know about it, but most of all to master the language and mainly handle products that language is English.
