as a back-to-school special deep cool is offering over ten percent off their latest cases and coolers including my personal favorite RGB edition captain 240 exa io check out the link in the video description for more details you asked for a minute science video that lasts exactly one minute so here's how a computer works the heart of any computer is also its brain and that's the central processing unit to execute stored programs commands using billions of transistors to sort through trillions of lines of binary code and since binary involves two states open and closed it's easy for transistors to discern between the two with a single threshold voltage random access memory is also a vital component of any PC it allows for temporary and speedy storage and access to some data the process is quicker than any hard disk or solid-state drive because it's immediately at the CPUs disposal the graphics processing unit either integrated or discrete is in charge of transcribing the data sent from the CPU into on-screen dynamic pictures individual pixels must be assessed and shaded simultaneously which is why graphics processors incorporate thousands of cores for parallel processing most dedicated cards have their own RAM and power delivery systems much like modern motherboards speaking of which the motherboard acts as the unifier the highway between the CPU Ram and discrete graphics processor information fed from RAM and storage devices is executed by the CPU and translated by the graphics card into a physical image power is distributed to the CPU mainboard peripherals and graphics card from a power supply with dedicated rails for unique voltage requirements usually 12 volts for anything major and 5 volts for peripherals this is science studio thanks for learning with us
