Motherboard buying trips
A user think on building a computer, motherboard is main point of the computer. Sometime user get confusing to buy good quality motherboard. Here we have listed some tips when looking at purchasing a computer motherboard. The type of the motherboard is a most consideration when looking to buy a motherboard. There are many kind of cases and not all computer cases can accommodate each all motherboard. Today, the most commonly found and used motherboard is the ATX motherboard. When looking at the motherboard, make sure your case supports your motherboard the current motherboard. • When looking to purchasing a motherboard ensure it is compatible with the CPU you plan on purchasing. • Drive connectors also important when purchasing a computer. Its defined on drives you want to using in your motherboard. An example of interface is EIDE, IDE & SCSI. • You should check PCI Express, AGP AMR, CNR, ISA & PCI Slot for you computer. • Jumpers are also important for a motherboard. I just try to list some Jumpers list blow: # Does the motherboard have CPU settings Jumpers? # Does the motherboard a clear CMOS Jumper? # Does the motherboard have video or sound Jumper? The all of you should checking when purchasing a good quality motherboard. Don`t forget to check the USB port, its very important for a motherboard.
Hard drive buying trips
If you want to purchasing a hard drive, it is important to understand and verify the hard drive is suitable for your uses your computer. When looking to purchase a hard drive the first and for most important think is the Interface the hard drive uses to communicate with the computer. Here I provide a list of information to choose a hard drive for your computer. • SCSI Another commonly used interface. SCSI devices are found in Apple computers as well as some IBM computers. The SCSI interface is a faster solution when compared to IDE/ATAPI. However, in some cases, they can be more difficult to install. To install a SCSI hard drive you must have a SCSI card and an available connection on the SCSI cable connecting to the SCSI card. It is important to remember if you have a Proprietary SCSI card. • IDE/ATAPI/ATA One of the more commonly found hard drives and used with Intel compatible computers, IDE is an easy to install and customize interface. Each Intel computer has the availability for a maximum of four IDE devices. These devices can range from hard drives to CD-ROM drives. If considering purchasing an IDE/ATAPI/ATA hard drive. Verify that there are available locations for the drive to be connected to. • External USB, Fire wire, or Parallel Several external solutions are also available. These include but are not limited to USB hard drive. When purchasing an external hard drive, it is important to look at the speed difference for transferring data to and from the hard drive. In addition, for these external drives to function properly. You must also have the available connection for the drive to be connected to.
Memory “RAM” Buying trips
Computer memory (RAM) is the most commonly buying and performed computer upgrades.
Here I provide blow different tips to look for buying computer memory. How much memory
should I use in my computer? This question really depends on the computer user. You want to run
what kind of programs in your computer. And how many programs you want to run at a same time.
One of the best methods of yourself how much RAM you should have is to use at the system requirements
of the programs you're running on your computer. So you can use minimum 2GB to up to 8GB memory "RAM" in your computer.
Also you should buy “DDR” “RAM” for your computer. The “DDR” “RAM” Help you to computer or computer programs
speed in load and opening time. Also copy speed and other so many factors defend on the “RAM”. So when you want
to buying a “RAM” You should must think what kind of “RAM” perfect for
your computer.
Processor buying trips
Buying a processor is an important, when making a computer.
Here I provide blow some information about buying a processor.
The processor can be a very important thing for users who are building a
computer. There are three main processor manufacturers: Cyrix, AMD and Intel.
Each of these type of processor have good reviews, and really each of them are very
close in compatibility. When buy any of these processors verify the motherboard is compatible.
*** Pentium - The 80586, or P5, the Pentium is the generation above the 486 processor line.
*** Pentium Pro - Chip designed to help speed up Windows 32-bit software
*** Pentium with MMX - Processor with additional 57 new instructions and enhanced
speed to graphics and multimedia software. MMX is now included in all Intel processors
that have been released after this processor.
*** Pentium II and III - The first of the Intel processors to include the Slot adapters.
These processors were the next generations of the Intel Pentium processor.
*** Intel Coppermine - The Socket (FC-PGA) version of the Intel Pentium III and IV.
*** Intel Flip Chip - Another name for the Intel Coppermine.
*** Pentium IV - The next generation of Intel processors, these processors were over
1GHz and were the FPGA processors.
*** Intel Celeron - The low end Intel processors designed to help lower the prices
of the computers by reducing or at first eliminating the level 2 cache.
*** AMD K6-2 - Socket 7 processor with the 3DNow! technology and first to have the 100MHz bus.
*** AMD K6-3 - K6-2 chip with Level 2 cache memory that runs at the speed of the CPU.
*** AMD Duron - Like the Intel Celeron, the AMD Duron is an affordable solution
processor allowing for the price in the overall computer to drop.
*** AMD Athlon - AMD generation with features such as the 200MHz bus speed.
*** AMD Thunderbird - The latest AMD processor, this processor is the socket version.
Here I just conversation about some of processor, I hope anybody can get helps with us.
CD/DVD Buying trips
Sometimes Buying a “CD-R” or “CD-RW” drive user confusing for it.
Here I provide some information about “CD-R” or “CD-RW” drive.
“CD-R” or CD Record drives allow you to do everything that a standard CD-ROM
is capacity of doing with the added ability of creating your own CD. An good s
olution for anyone that is in need of a CD-ROM and backup solution.
“CD-RW” - Like a “CD-R” drive, a “CD-RW”, or CD Read/Write, drive allows you t
o do everything that a standard CD-ROM is capacity of as well as read and write
to a “CD-RW” disc 1000 of times instead of once like a CD-R drive. While a little
more expensive, this is another great solution for backups.
“DVD” or Digital Versatile (video) Disc, allows a computer to not only do everythi
ng that a standard “CD-ROM” drive is capacity of doing, but at the same time is capac
ity of reading “DVD” Discs and “DVD” movies.
“IDE” Each IBM or Intel computer has the capacity of having a total of four IDE devices
connect to it. It is likely that one or two of these are already being used, one by t
he hard disk drive and one by the “CD-ROM” drive.
IDE devices are a great solution for you when thinking about the interface you wis
h to use as the drives are easy to install and fast.
“USB USB” is a new interface available on newer IBM and Macintosh computers. USB is
a fast solution but is the slower of the three interface possible. What makes USB a
strong competitor is they are usually always easy to install and are a portable solution
, meaning these drives will work with other computers with USB ports.
“SCSI” Every Macintosh computer has a SCSI port built onto the Motherboard or has an In
terface card for SCSI devices. IBM computers do not have a SCSI card already installed
and will need to purchase this card before installing a SCSI “CD-R” drive.
SCSI devices are one of the more difficult drives to install but are the fastest
solution of the three available interfaces.
Monitor Buying trips
Buying a computer monitor the most important think of the computer. As it is what will display everything coming from your computer. And good resolution monitor helps you to enjoy beautiful color of moves. “CRT” - One of the most commonly used technologies for computer monitors. CRT, or Cathode Ray Tube, is a technology much like what you will find on most TV. CRT monitors are an good solution. “LCD” - Liquid Crystal Display, monitors are similar to what is found on portable computers. LCD monitors overall display much liked of an moves, img. “Monitor size” Monitor size is the most important when buying a computer monitor. Monitors are available in 15", 17", 19" and 21." Like most things, larger is more expensive. The larger the screen, the more amount of viewable space you will be able to work with. Users who plan on using the computer for graphic art or cad, I highly recommend utilize at least a 21" monitor. Finally users with little space or plan on using the computer for word processing and e-mail may want to consider a 15" monitor. The maximum resolution is the amount of pixels that can be displayed horizontally x vertically. Be cautious when buying a monitor at any size that advertises a large resolution size such as 1,600 x 1,200 for a 15" monitor.
