Hardware Components of Computer and Example in game.
Hardware Components
of Computer and Example in game.
CPU
The first components of computer that
will be explain the uses of it is CPU. This one of the important and main part
of the computer because without it the computer cannot run anything. Therefore,
the uses of this CPU are where it performing or running programs inside the
computer such as gaming and calculation. Therefore, the faster the CPU will result
good performing of the user computer, while if the CPU is low or not good
enough the performing will be slower and possible can be crash happen in the
user computer, especially in video game that will preferably need higher CPU.
The good example can be seen on Figure.11 below both loading images in
video game that shows the upper one is computer with Low CPU while the bottom
is with High CPU. The low CPU will be much longer to wait the loading to end
while the higher CPU will not that long time to finish the loading part. In Table.1
also shows the most used CPU name.
GPU
The next components will be about the
GPU. This component quite like CPU but this GPU uses more into the graphic of
the computer. In short explanation, GPU where define what kind of quality that
the computer can hold. If the GPU is high, therefore, the performing will not
be a problem because it can run smoothly with high quality and details graphics.
However, if GPU is low; the computer will hard to hold the higher quality. It
will be overheated can happen on the computer or the computer can be crash for moment.
Due to, the quality of high graphic and take long to process with low GPU. In
addition, the good example of uses GPU where can be seen on video game. Like shows
on Figure.12 below it shows that the graphic setting of the video game
and with the high quality been using for video game will be, that need higher
GPU to play it smoothly with that high quality setting. Otherwise, the user can
use low quality if they still want to run the video game smooth even though have
higher GPU. But for the low GPU, it preferable to use low quality to run the
game smoothly. In Table.1 below shows name of famous GPU that mostly
gamer used it.
RAM
Unlike, CPU and GPU above. RAM is
quite different from both of them. This is because of RAM is all about the
memory. Which the uses of it are to allow the speed of the computer to maintain
while opening multiple application. Therefore, this component use to let the
user switch quickly to other application, while previous application open. Every
application inside the computer will use memory, that makes the use of RAM to
store the memory temporary, while the applications are still open. As
conclusion, if the user has higher RAM the user can open such as 5 applications
at once while maintaining the speed. However, if its lower, it will be heavy
for it to store the application memory even for short time. Which means if the
RAM is low, it’s not preferable to open many applications, due to it can cause the
performing of the computer will be slow. The higher RAM example such as 16GB RAM,
8GB RAM and more; for the lower one example 3GB or 4GB RAM. By looking at the
numbers of the “GB” can easily understand that, if opening many applications for
example with 16GB. The user open 5 application that cost 6GB that used. As a
result, the 10GB are still free that will make the computer maintain the speed
of it. For example, in video game before downloading the video game they will
mention how many RAM Minimum will be required like shows on Figure.13
below 8 GB RAM Require, in order to run the game smoothly.
ROM/ Storage
For the next component on the list
will be talking about the uses of Storage. This type of components really important
and really useful inside the computer. Due to, it uses to store all the data or
documents inside the computer. As a result, if the user has bigger storage
inside the computer more data and more application can put inside. While, if it
has small amount of storage, it will be hard for the user to pun more data inside
especially games. Take video game as example, the game will have amount of
storage that requirement in order the user to download that help the user to
know how many it will cost such as 32GB. Therefore, the user downloaded it 32GB
from the user storage used for the game data. This can be seen on Figure.14
below where shows the amount of Assassin Creed Valhalla storage require. Meanwhile,
if the storage about to full, the user will usually experience crash as well or
the computer will slow because of the computer too heavy for store the data
inside.
Card
When talking about another components, it will be the cards that use for
the computer. In terms of Cards, it divided into two type of Cards which are: -
·
Sound “Card”
·
Network Card / Wi-fi Card
Sound Card
This one of the cards that mention
above, is Sound Card where the uses of it to allow user to heard the sound from
the computer. Another words, it uses to let the audio of the file such as mp.3
file can be heard. Therefore, without any sound card, it will not produce or
convert the sound audio that the user wants to heard. For example, when the
user play video game, the sound effects or even the dialog cannot be produced
by the computer even though the user have mp.3 file. But without this sound
card the user cannot hear the sound. In Figure.15 below shows how the sound
cards look like and below it the image of sound setting in the video game,
where the user use to adjust the sound volume.
Network Card
Another card on the list will be instead
of sound it about the Network. It the same like sound, the card uses to allow
the computer to detect something. In this case will the Wi-fi or Network. This
component use to allow the user to able connect the Wi-Fi on the user computer.
Therefore, the user can put the password of the user’s Wi-Fi. Without any of
this card been applied inside the computer, the user wouldn’t able to connect
the internet, even they have one in the house. One of example will be playing
in online video game, that need this card to applied inside the computer.
Otherwise, the user can play the video game. On Figure.16 below shows
how the Wi-Fi looks like.
Webcam
For this part, isn’t about the inside
component part of the computer. However, this will be under Hardware Peripheral.
In short, the expansion of the computer example the first one will be Webcam. In
some computer such as laptop the webcam already build-in it. While, for the PC
user they will have option to applied the Webcam on their computer. In terms of
the uses of this hardware part is to allow the audience to see the user face. This
really well-known especially for the gamer YouTube channel, where they use webcam
to show their face in order to audience can see the reaction and to know the
user. For some people it may not be useful but for some it very useful instead in
game industry Webcam also useful to for Online Presentation or Online Meetings.
Furthermore, in Figure.17 below shows the Gamer YouTuber use the webcam
to shows his face.
Keyboard/ Mouse
The next Hardware Peripheral is
Keyboard/Mouse. This two hardware, really usable for the user because of it’s
allow the user to text or type letter and help the user to see where to click
on the monitors. Therefore, for the typing letters or even numbers are the uses
of keyboard, with that hardware the user can easily type letters on the
computer. However, in game terms the uses of Keyboard much different because its
not only use for typing words or numbers, but the keys such as “WASD” used for
movement in game. Where these 4 keys commonly used in video game in order to
move the character. In Figure.18 below shows the example of games that tell
the use how to move the character by telling what keys to move forward,
backward, left and right.
Furthermore, for the mouse. The main
use for mouse is to allow the user to move the mouse cursor position, run the
program by clicking the mouse and for drawing purpose as well. In conclusion
this makes the user easy to move and more comfortable instead of using the
mouse tap (for laptop user). In addition, the good example of the uses of mouse
will be in terms of gaming. Instead of clicking and scrolling the program or
application; in video game the use of mouse commonly for firing, aiming, switching
weapons and also for character movement. However, it also according to the
video game itself. Therefore, in Figure.19 below shows the setting of
mouse control in Call of Duty video game, that shows what part of the mouse for
firing and for switching weapons.
Monitors
Moreover, the last part of Hardware
Peripheral that on the list will be the uses of Monitors. The uses of this hardware
is easy and simple to understand. This is because of the uses of monitor where
it display the graphics, images, text or even video that connect to the
computer which allow the user to see what the image or graphic looks like on
the monitors. Therefore, without any monitors the user cannot see what the
image will be. Furthermore, the high quality of monitors with high refresh rate
will produce the good respond speed that display on it, which can avoid any lag
problems in order the image to show. With the help of the monitor good colors
it will create better and accurate color especially for photo editors. As a
result, for gaming part type of monitors that recommended will be high-quality with
high refresh rate minimum 75Hz and the highest will be 120Hz. Where it will
makes the monitors speed more faster to respond. On the Figure.20 where
it clearly shows that the monitor shows the game assets graphic on the screen.
