The main function of the mouse is to move the cursor over the screen in a graphical
interface ( GUI ), allowing you to interact with the elements on the screen through its
different buttons, especially the two main and basic buttons ( left click and right
click). ).

A graphics card, video card, video card, graphics accelerator card or display
adapter is an expansion card for a computer or computer, responsible for
processing the data coming from the CPU.

A network card
A network card or network adapter is a peripheral that allows communication
with devices connected to each other and also allows resources to be shared
between two or more computers (hard drives, CD-ROMs, printers, etc.).

Mothers Card
The motherboard, also known as motherboard or mainboard, is a printed
circuit board to which the components that make up the computer are
connected.

Power supply
In electronics, a power supply is a device that converts alternating current into one or
more direct currents, which feed the different circuits of the electronic device to which
it is connected (computer, television, printer, router, etc.).

Serial ATA or SATA

Serial ATA or SATA (acronym for Serial Advanced
Technology Attachment) is a data transfer interface
between the motherboard and some storage devices,
such as hard drives, CD/DVD/BR readers and rewriters, Solid State Drives or other
devices

a motherboard
A motherboard (sometimes alternatively known as motherboard, mainboard, flat
plate or logic board, [1] or colloquially, a motherboard) is the main printed circuit
board (PCB) found in computers.

Read Only Memory Rom

 Read-only memory, also known as ROM (acronym in English for read-only
memory), is a storage medium used in computers and electronic devices,
which allows only the reading of information and not its writing, regardless of
the presence or not from an energy source. Data stored in ROM cannot be
modified, or at least not quickly or easily. and other expandable systems.

a sound card
A sound card or sound card is an expansion card for computers that allows audio output
controlled by a computer program called a driver.

The microprocessor
The microprocessor (or simply processor) is the central and
most complex integrated circuit of a computer system; By way of illustration, it is
often called by analogy the "brain" of a computer.

BIOS
From the English "Basic Input/Output System" (Basic Input/Output System). The BIOS
is a pre-installed program on Windows-based computers (Not Macs), which the
computer uses to boot.
