Hardware: market research reports

Computer hardware components are fixed parts that make up a personal computer, on which software and operating systems are installed. Mass-market consumer computers use highly homogeneous components that are simple for end users to assemble without assistance. Standard desktop computers contain the following hardware components: a power supply, motherboard, and hard disk. Monitors, keyboards, and mice are external hardware devices that also connect to personal computers.

Inside the case, or tower, of a computer, sits the motherboard. This is the main hardware component inside a PC. The motherboard is a large rectangular board that interconnects the central processing unit (CPU), random access memory, disk drives, and any other peripherals. The CPU is the brain of the computer. It performs calculations that enable the computer to function. The CPU is cooled by a heat sink and or a fan. The computer chip set controls communication between the CPU and other computer components. Random access memory (RAM) stores parts of running processes, like the operating system (OS) and any software applications.

All of these are examples of computer hardware, which is a dynamic and expanding market. Find the information you need on the computer hardware industry.
