Computer Hardware

Computer hardware refers to the physical components of a computer system. This includes all the tangible parts that make up a computer, such as the central processing unit (CPU), memory (RAM), storage devices (like hard drives and solid-state drives), motherboards, power supplies, graphics cards, and peripheral devices (like keyboards, mice, and printers). Hardware components work together to perform the operations and functions of a computer, enabling it to run software applications, process data, and facilitate user interaction. Unlike software, which comprises the instructions and code that run on hardware, hardware is the underlying architecture that hosts and executes these programs. The performance and capabilities of a computer system are largely determined by its hardware configuration.
