PCs have become a staple in every home. Without PCs, you will find it hard to stay connected and to even do the work required of you in school or in the office. With so much PC packages being shoved to our throat every time we go to department stores and computer shops, you’ll really get quite confused on what you really need and what PC package will fit your budget and lifestyle. To help you through this dilemma, here is a brief backgrounder of the parts of PCs that you should get to know.

Processor.

This is one of the three primary components of your PC. The processor is the part that determines how fast your computer process information. Intel is still the leading brand in processors but competitors such as American Micro Devices (AMD) are slowly catching up, offering cheaper alternative. In shopping for a processor, one should consider the following:

Clock speed – this will show the number of instructions that a computer can execute in a second. This usually comes after the brand name. Processors nowadays are already set at the gigahertz range.

Cache memory – this stores the data that were previously accessed. This simplifies the work of the computer as it would not take twice as long to access information already stored in memory bank. Without a cache memory, much of the work will fall on the RAM (Random Access Memory).

Operating temperature – some processors easily heats up. Before buying, make sure that you have asked about the operating temperature just in case you need to buy additional fans or put the computer in an air-conditioned room.

RAM (Random Access Memory).

RAM serves as the temporary memory of the PC, containing information that are needed for the computer and the programs to function. In addition to processors, RAM also determines the speed of the computer. The higher the RAM, the faster the computer is in accessing information and responding to commands.

Motherboard

This is where all the parts of the PC’s CPU (Central Processing Unit) are attached. Some motherboards already have video cards and soundcards embedded on it while others don’t. What is important however is to choose a motherboard that is compatible with your RAM and processor? Incompatibility of PC hardware can cause major problems and may even lead to the breakdown of your computer.

Hard drive.

This is the part where you store all the information in your PC. Picture a floppy disk with much much larger storing capacity. The hard drive serves as the permanent memory of your computer. Here you install all your programs and save all the documents that you need. It is also important that you buy a hard drive with really big capacity especially now when people are so used to storing multimedia files that may use up a lot of hard drive space.

Video cards

This is the part of the computer which determines the quality of the multimedia images that you will view. The higher the memory of the video card, the better is the picture quality and the colors. Also, video cards are also responsible for how fast multimedia images are accessed. This is especially needed if you use your computer for multimedia activities such as watching a movie or playing video games.

Laptop computers, also commonly called as notebooks, are convenient and very portable. But as there are many choices available, so you should choose a laptop that fits your lifestyle, your needs and your budget.

Prioritize laptop price, portability and performance

Before getting into system specifications, decide if portability or added features are important for you. If you are a student or a frequent traveller, consider portability as a major factor when buying. But know that lighter and smaller laptops are usually less powerful than the heavier ones, and they don’t come in cheap either.

More expensive laptops offer greater portability or offer more features than cheaper ones. Those that weigh less, for example, often cost more. If you are on a tight budget and would like to go for features more than portability, you should get a bargain notebook. But if you would rather have lesser weight to carry, it would be best to opt for a thin-and-light or an ultraportable one.

Once you find a laptop that exactly fit your needs, you can move on and choose from the narrowed-down choices. Here are some steps you can follow:

1. Pick the right laptop processor.

AMD and Intel are the two most common processors in laptops. The newer 2.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD Turion 64 are generally more expensive than the lower power counterparts. Know what you will be using the laptop for and the processor you should pick have just a bit more power than needed. Don’t opt for high processor power if you don’t really need it.

2. Select standard features you need.

Next, you should choose the hard drive capacity depending on the amount of files you will be handling, the memory (RAM) depending on the performance you need, choose between drive combos (CD or DVD drives and writers), the graphics card as well as the screen dimensions. You should also identify which ports you need to connect all your peripherals, the networking and Wi-Fi support and other features such as built-in card readers, Bluetooth or camera.

3. Choose the essential accessories you need.

You can save some amount if you buy a bundle that includes the accessories you need, such as the mouse, an extra battery, a docking station and a carrying case.

4. Get the best laptop that matches your need and your budget.

Laptops can be expensive so it is best to invest on a unit that will best fit your needs and your budget. If you have extra budget to spare, consider buying a model that has more features that you need. If you have just about enough, choose the best deal that will give you a great run for your money.
