Looking at the backside of a motherboard you see a lot of different path ways and circuits... After seeing Tron Legacy I will never look at a motherboard the same way again, even as a computer builder..
@CallOfDuty4Fish wrong, you can destroy a hard drive, after you smash it with a hammer or any thing heavy to use to smash it, then bowl it in VERY HIGH WATER TEMP then by a magnet wand or ANY high powered magnet and move it over the hard drive DISK and it WILL damage it and will NOT recoverable.
Any computer expert care to enlighten me? A hardware is not a chip. A Device is a Device like the speakers or cell phone. A Program or Programming should be called a File Ware. Software is obsolete. The Graphics is a File.
@heartlessvietboy 1) hardware is a physical component of the computer. its not entirely a chip. 2)a device is an electronic object, like what you mentioned. 3) a program is an application, while programming is developing an application, and there is no such thing as "file ware" 4) software is exactly the samething as a program, and obsolete is outdated stuff (not just software) 5) Graphics can be a file (like animation), but its used to translate binary code into a graphical user interface. done
This can be broken down. A hardware is not a physical component of a computer. A computer shell is not a hardware. A hardware is a computer chip no smaller than 5mm. A device is something physical that is no larger than the average computer or smaller than jolly rancher. A device must include an outer shell other wise its a hardware. A program is an application while programming is developing an application. The computer is balogny. It's what we call a Graphics card.
dual+ core processor, something like 4 RAM, it's awesome. it's bigger and heavier than a normal one, needs a bit more ventilation, and it's designed SPECIFICALLY for gaming
Yep, looks like everything should work. Just make sure you install the 64 bit version of windows or you'll only get use out of half of your RAM.
You might consider looking at the i5 2500k if you're not going to be installing a graphics card, the 2500k has better integrated graphics than the 2400.
can someone answer how i have no video card but can run my computer i have a mdg windows xp home computer all i have is 3 white slots where the video card is supposed to be
@capt5656 Many motherboards now have integrated video cards (meaning that the video card is built into the motherboard) and thus do not need another video card to display.
@zombieman2212 even if you format, scientists can still retrieve data from a hdd. they look at how strong or week a 0 is and then estimate as to whether it was a 0 or a 1 before format. That is why governments use multiple 0 and 1 writes over the sensitive data to completely erase any difference between the all the 0 after the removal of the file.
Great basic intro to interior components of a system unit. Perfect to show my students in my Intro to Computers class. Short, sweet, but very clear video and audio file. Thanks.
1:53 Who in the world REALLY plays video games anymore? I mean, it's really following a script REAL people wrote (the video game). It may have been good when you were a kid, but now? I don't know. Creating you own original work is much more challenging!
@jiveturkey25 no problem, dude. just stick a live wire to your dickbag and listen to the corn pop and we're all good. As an added bonus, film it and that can be your original work. As long as I get a credit for the idea.
You can erase the data from the hard disk before recycling so you don't need to break it down. Disks are delicate and a lot of their parts can easily be reused...
The "mystery" behind this "undeleting the data is that when you erase the data in windows, windows erases the addresses to the actual data on the disk while data remains. If you screw windows and full format the hard drive, all addresses, data and alocation table will be empty.. Full format is also healthy for your hard drive...
you dont have to destroy the HDD to destroy ur data~ you can just unscrew the round disc inside the HDD and rub it vigorously on the road~ best if the road has stones on them~ :)
i kno already about the 7 main componenets i want to knwo what they're made of and how the're put together and everything where would i be able to find this knd of information?
no man! LOLOLOLOLOL only if you load things over it but still data remains!
magnets destroy
if i use a partition manager, i could find all your old hidden deleted photos txt files some internet data and possible even saved game files, music and movies ect...
If you're getting a new computer, why not install the old hard drive on it? It's kinda stupid to smash your harddrive with a hammer when you sell your computer.. : /
That's because this video is obviously for the non-tech savvy person. Why do tech people get so upset over videos like these? Not everyone is a genious at computers. Videos like these are meant for people who only know that pushing the power button turns the computer on. No need to tech babble that they don't understand. Sometimes, the basics is all that people need. It's up to the consumer and the sales person to decide how far in depth they need to go when discussing a computer.
STFU You are no longer allowed to write your opinions, because they suck just like you as a person. You're a real GENIUS!!! Try proof reading sometime, dumb shit.
...wow. Really dude? You're telling me that because some of us have the decency to not over-complicate things for people who have no idea what they're doing, that are dumb shits? As I said before, not everyone in the world is tech savvy. There's no need to go into those kinds of details when all they simply want to know is what the name of the hardware is and what it's basic functionality is.
So, why over complicate stuff for people who only want simplicity?
@matrix86 agreed, BUT then the basic info needs to be correct. Too many misconceptions have been born by oversimplifying complex subject matter. In this video for example: more ram makes your computer faster.
This does not always hold true. The computer just needs enough of it. Extra doesn't make it faster. Less than required, does however slow it down.
Faster ram will make the computer faster, but there is a limit to what the mobo and/or cpu will support.
@Ice724637 true most systems will work the same with 2gb as 4 gb but only if you use mail internet msn listen music watching movies but if you play games you will see a difference and also if you edit pictures or video's or do heavy multi tasking
"This does not always hold true. The computer just needs enough of it. Extra doesn't make it faster. Less than required, does however slow it down."
If a game for example would need 3GB to fit completely in the ram, the game would run slower on 2GB than on 4GB, but it would not run faster on 8GB than on 4GB. (this example is simplified and exludes, among other things, ram used by the system and other apps)
@matrix86 i'm actually quite shocked to hear this statement about the ram speeding up a computer in an informative video.
I had a similar case with a guy who has just started studying IT with me saying that he has a ***mb graphics card and that that is fast enough for him.
Needless to say i set him straight.
No wonder people have no clue, when this kind of stuff is on the net.
Please, guys from HowStuffWorks, at least put in the effort to make sure your not contributing to misinformation.
To truly delete data on a drive, just use a bios program like wipedrive or dataerasor to erase the drive. These programs litterally reset the binary code throughout the entire drive so any data is wiped clean and cannot be recovered. Theres no need to physically destroy the disk genious! BTW, you forgot to mention about the North and South Bridges, the ALU and the Cache among other things. Get it right
You aren't paying attention to what this videos is about. It's about what hardware components are in a computer and a very basic example of what they do. This is meant for people who have no idea what's in a computer. For people who only know how to push the power button and that's it. There's no need to explain bridges and cache and differences between PCI, PCI-e, APG, and so on and so forth. This is just a basic "this is what's in your computer case" video.
Yeah, I know, and actually, my rig is now a Core i5 750 and 8GB DDR3 2000 w/ 7 1TB F3 drives and an ATCS 840 case... But anyway, the reason I was thrashing and trashing is because the motherfucker is either a dumbass or a liar... Who puts 8GB of RAM on an X58?!
Wow... look at all the geeks getting their e-cocks out and comparing sizes.
Those who are truly awesome do not feel the need to brag. Those who aren't generally don't call attention to it. Basically, stop bumming and get on with your lives.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I'd just like to say though, my e-cock wins easily:
4.2GHz Phenom II X4 Quad, 4GB DDR3 1600, 2 x 1TB F3, Geforce GTX 275 896MB, with OC's, the fastest single-GPU card on the market, and an ASUS M4A78T-E motherboard... going onto a 23" 1080p Samsung LCD. Pwnt.
i beat that EASILY i7 965 extreme oced to 4.25 ghz, 16gb dominator ddr3 16000, 4* intel ssd's,2 EVGA gtx 295 oced edition, eVGA 141-BL-E760-A1 Motherboard, full watercooling in a lian li case, monitor is my tv a 32 samsung best off all it was free, i won it in a local gaming competition on my cheap (700ish) gaming rig beat that. LOL
Lmao dude... first off, waste of electricity... second, 16GB is a lie... You can't get that RAM in greater than 2GB modules. FAIL!
Btw, my rig itself really did cost $650, and I'll have a video of that within the week cuz' it gives me success-peen. Monitor was an additional $140 unopened on Craigslist ($260 monitor).
I said THAT RAM. As in Corsair Dominator RAM... and the i7 only takes DDR3 dumbfuck. Who the hell doesn't know they make 4GB DDR2 modules anyway? That's old news.
O_O all my brothers know everything about computers and they have challenged me who relies on them to build a gaming computer soooo i need this badly :P
hey, sweet vid, just wondering i have a ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 (2GB) graphics card, the most powerful one atm cause i like my gaming lol, is it possible when i upgrade in a couple of years or so to just attack say another graphics card on thats 1GB so that theyre running together? cheers
you cannot add a third one cause they have to go in pair. ATI pair connection is called a crossfire, there is a bridge connecting the cards then they're used in crossfire mode.
So what you should do is change both graphic cards you have with a new bridge.
Honestly i think you'll be fine for the next couple of years with what you have now.
If you know how to, And have the time, Build a PC, Don't buy them. Building PC's allow you to get the exact specifications you want and it works out alot cheaper aswell.
Agreed... but you should not be an idiot if you are supposed to build your own... Someone I know showed the CPU pins in the wrong way so they broke and got stuck in the motherboard oh there went 600$ But ofcourse his parents gave him new and better ones -.-
DONT STOP OR ELSE SOMETHING BAD WILL HAPPEN MY NAME IS JENNY I AM 7 WITH RED HAIR MY MOTHER BEATS ME I LIVE IN A CELL WITH NO WINDOWS DOORS AND NO LIGHT I HAVE RED SCARY EYES AND IHAVE NO NOSE OR EARS I AM DEAD IF YOU DONT SEND THIS TO 15PPL B4 U GO TO BED I WILL APPEAR 2NIGHT WITH A KNIFE AND KILL U THIS IS NO JOKE SOMETHING GOOD WILL HAPPEN TO U AT 10:22 SOMEONE WILL CALL YOU OR TALK TO YOU ONLINE AND SAY I LOVE YOU OR ASK YOU OUT BUT HERES THE CATCH Send To 15 vids
ok the cpu is a very flat and small chip that sits in a "socket" on the motherboard. they create an intense ammount of heat so the heatsink (block with the metal grill and fan) is used to transfer the heat away from it.
no need to be mean not everybody knows how to build a pc

This is meant for people who have no idea what's in a computer. For people who only know how to push the power button and that's it. There's no need to explain bridges and cache and differences between PCI, PCI-e, APG, and so on and so forth. This is just a basic "this is what's in your computer case" video.

just opening a hard drive will break it. to undelete files you have to open up the dive in a clean room and do some stuff to it.

Well I know how to build computers, but didn't know about the microscopic characters. That's pretty cool, I think I'll look for some later.

You just got a quad with 4 threads. Your "e-cock" might be long to you but very short to me. You also only have 4gb ram... Thats y u get thumbs down!

Yeah, I know, and actually, my rig is now a Core i5 750 and 8GB DDR3 2000 w/ 7 1TB F3 drives and an ATCS 840 case... But anyway, the reason I was thrashing and trashing is because the motherfucker is either a dumbass or a liar... Who puts 8GB of RAM on an X58?!

On a X58 u problaby would have eather 6 or 12Gb of ram.

I'd just like to say though, my e-cock wins easily:
4.2GHz Phenom II X4 Quad, 4GB DDR3 1600, 2 x 1TB F3, Geforce GTX 275 896MB, with OC's, the fastest single-GPU card on the market, and an ASUS M4A78T-E motherboard... going onto a 23" 1080p Samsung LCD. Pwnt.
Btw, the above only cost me $650. Tyvm, I win.

Lmao dude... first off, waste of electricity... second, 16GB is a lie... You can't get that RAM in greater than 2GB modules. FAIL!
Btw, my rig itself really did cost $650, and I'll have a video of that within the week cuz' it gives me success-peen. Monitor was an additional $140 unopened on Craigslist ($260 monitor).

hey, sweet vid, just wondering i have a ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2 (2GB) graphics card, the most powerful one atm cause i like my gaming lol, is it possible when i upgrade in a couple of years or so to just attack say another graphics card on thats 1GB so that theyre running together? cheers
EUnitIWI 2 years ago
you cannot add a third one cause they have to go in pair. ATI pair connection is called a crossfire, there is a bridge connecting the cards then they're used in crossfire mode.
So what you should do is change both graphic cards you have with a new bridge.
Honestly i think you'll be fine for the next couple of years with what you have now.

Agreed... but you should not be an idiot if you are supposed to build your own... Someone I know showed the CPU pins in the wrong way so they broke and got stuck in the motherboard oh there went 600$ But ofcourse his parents gave him new and better ones -.-

The CPU is inside the fan. The fan cools it down to prevent overheating.

hahaha.... ''inside'' ?? its under the fan.... they could have shown the chip itself
clearlyimba 2 years ago
ok the cpu is a very flat and small chip that sits in a "socket" on the motherboard. they create an intense ammount of heat so the heatsink (block with the metal grill and fan) is used to transfer the heat away from it.
