RAM — Think of it as your desk workspace
Imagine you're working with papers. The RAM is the space on your desk where you lay out all your items currently using.
More RAM = more room to work on multiple tasks at once.
In your computer, RAM depends on power — like your workspace disappears when you turn everything off. It holds temporary data only while the PC is on
CPU — The brain of the computer
The CPU is like your brain thinking and processing tasks.
Installing it is like placing a powerful thinker into your computer to do all the calculating, gaming, or editing.
Storage (HDD/SSD) — Your filing cabinet
HDDs (hard drives) are the old-school drawers where you store lots of files. They're like metal folders—big but slower.
SSDs are modern, fast digital drawers—think of them as smart boxes that find files instantly.
Both keep your files even when the computer is off.
Add-on Cards — Extra tools for your setup
These are optional bits you stick in to add new abilities—like a graphic card for better gaming or a Wi-Fi card to connect wirelessly.
They slot into places on the motherboard (the main board inside your PC, much like the countertop in a kitchen), making your computer do more
Displays: Resolution, Pixel Density, Refresh Rate, Mini-LED, Color Gamut
Think of the screen as a dot painting made of tiny dots (pixels).
Resolution is how many dots are used — for example, 1920×1080 means 1920 dots across and 1080 dots up. More dots = sharper image
Pixel Density — How close the dots are
Imagine two paintings using the same number of dots, but one is small and one is big. The small one has more dots close together — looks crisp. The big one looks fuzzy.
Pixel density (PPI) tells you how many dots fit into an inch — more means clearer detail.
Refresh Rate — How fast the picture updates
It’s like how often your TV redraws the picture.
Refresh rate, measured in Hertz (Hz), shows how many times per second the screen can refresh — 60 Hz is normal, 120 Hz or 144 Hz feels smoother, especially for gaming
Mini-LED — Smarter backlight for deeper contrast
Mini-LED is a newer backlight tech that helps make dark parts darker and bright parts brighter.
It’s like having smart lamps behind the screen that only light up where needed, for vivid contrast.
Color Gamut — How many colors it can show
Think of rainbow shades — some screens show more colors, some show fewer.
Color gamut is the range of colors it can display, like having more crayons in your box—makes pictures look richer and more accurate
