The CPU is the central processing unit that carries out instructions of computer programs. It has an arithmetic logic unit and control unit. Single core CPUs can run one operation at a time while dual core can run multiple. 32-bit CPUs can access up to 4GB of RAM while 64-bit can access much more. RAM is computer data storage that allows data to be accessed quickly in any random order. It loses data when powered off. A graphics card generates images for display and connects to the motherboard's expansion port. A heat sink cools electronic devices like those found in refrigerators and air conditioners. The motherboard holds crucial components like the CPU and RAM and provides power to connect other components.

- 2. CPU Central processing unit is the hardware within the computer which carry outs instructions of a computer programme. There are two typical components in a CPU, arithmetic logic unit and a control unit. The differences between single core and dual core are that single core can only run one operation but dual core can run many different operations asked. Also 32 bit can only access up to 4 GB of ram, apposed to 64 bit which can run 1.845 x 10 x 10 GB.
- 3. RAM Random Access Memory is a form of computer data storage. Its used to access data quickly in any random order. The first RAM modules to come into the market were created in 1951 and were sold until the late 1960s and early 1970s. It loses its data when its switched off, as it only stores spare copy's not the original copy.
- 4. GRAPHICS CARD A graphics card mostly known as a video card is an expansion card which generates feed to the output images to a display. Modern motherboards provide an expansion port which the video card can be connected too. There is no direct link but the video card should match the capabilities of the monitor i.e. HD.
- 5. HEAT SINK A heat sink Is a component that is used too cool electronic devices within the computer. Heat sinks can be known as heat exchangers also found refrigerators and air conditioning systems.
- 6. MOTHERBOARD A motherboard is known as a printed circuit board. It is mostly found in all modern computers, it holds most crucial components for example the ram or the CPU. Motherboard holds together the main components of the computer and provides the necessary electrical buses to power the adapter cards and chips.
