Parts of the Computer www.kimmaslin.com

Parts of a computer Some of the main components that make a computer work: Housing Motherboard Central Processing Unit (CPU) Hard Drive Random Access Memory (RAM) Operating System

Housing The part that holds all the ”computer bits” together – it’s literally the big plastic case! Note: the housing doesn’t include the keyboard, monitor or mouse in a Desktop PC.

Motherboard Just like a real-life mother, the motherboard keeps all parts of the (computer) family together The motherboard is the board which all the other parts of the computer connect to. Every other part of the computer connects directly to the motherboard. Images sourced under Creative Commons license

Central Processing Unit The “brains” of the computer Also known as the processor The job of the CPU is to interpret the code it receives from the other computer components, making it usable to your operating system.

Hard Drive Sometimes called the Hard Disk This is the part of the computer that stores all your information (pictures, documents, videos etc) Hard drive capacity is measured in megabytes (or these days, even terrabytes!)

Random Access Memory (RAM) Is the part of your computer that is used as “instant memory” The RAM is in action when you’re opening up a program If you run lots of programs at a time, you may need more RAM to cope!

Operating System Software, not hardware! The operating is a large, powerful program which controls and manages all the hardware (and software) parts that make up the computer All computers and devices have operating systems E.g. Microsoft Windows, MacOS, iOS

The Human Computer Parts of the computer can also be thought of like parts that make up the human body… Housing (skin): holds everything together! Motherboard (skeleton): everything connects to it! Central Processing Unit (CPU) (brain): processes instructions! Hard Drive (your memory): stores things! Random Access Memory (RAM) (muscle): executes instructions! Operating System (personality): intangible, different devices (people) can have different operating systems!
