laitteistokokonaisuudesta
Laitteistokokonaisuus, or hardware system, refers to the physical components of a computer or other electronic device. It encompasses all the tangible parts that work together to process data and perform tasks. The primary components of a hardware system include the central processing unit (CPU), which is the brain of the computer, executing instructions and performing calculations. The motherboard serves as the main circuit board, connecting and allowing communication between various components. Random access memory (RAM) is volatile memory used to store data that the CPU is actively using. Storage devices, such as hard disk drives (HDDs) and solid-state drives (SSDs), provide long-term data storage. Input devices like keyboards and mice allow users to interact with the system, while output devices such as monitors and printers display or produce the results of the computer's processing. Graphics processing units (GPUs) handle rendering graphics and visuals, essential for gaming and multimedia applications. Power supply units (PSUs) provide the necessary electrical power to all components. Together, these components form a cohesive hardware system that enables the functionality and performance of a computer or electronic device.
