Personal computer has a lot of case or chassis in a tower shape (desktop) and the following parts:
'''Computer hardware''' is the physical part of a [[computer]], including the [[digital circuit]]ry, as distinguished from the [[computer software]] that executes within the hardware. The hardware of a computer is infrequently changed, in comparison with software and data, which are "soft" in the sense that they are readily created, modified or erased on the computer. [[Firmware]] is a special type of software that rarely, if ever, needs to be changed and so is stored on hardware devices such as [[read-only memory]] (ROM) where it is not readily changed (and is, therefore, "firm" rather than just "soft").

Most computer hardware is not seen by normal users. It is in [[embedded systems]] in automobiles, microwave ovens, [[electrocardiograph]] machines, [[compact disc]] players, and other devices. [[Personal computer]]s, the computer hardware familiar to most people, form only a small minority of computers (about 0.2% of all new computers produced in 2003). See [[Microprocessor#Market statistics|Market statistics]].

==Typical PC hardware==
Main article: Motherboard
 
A typical [[Personal computer]] has a lot of [[Computer case|case]] or chassis in a tower shape (desktop) and the following parts:
The motherboard is the "heart" of the computer, through which all other components interface.

===Motherboard===
* Central processing unit (CPU) - Performs most of the calculations which enable a computer to function, sometimes referred to as the "brain" of the computer.
{{main|Motherboard}}
o Computer fan - Used to lower the temperature of the computer; a fan is almost always attached to the CPU, and the computer case will generally have several fans to maintain a constant airflow. Liquid cooling can also be used to cool a computer, though it focuses more on individual parts rather than the overall temperature inside the chassis.
* Random Access Memory (RAM) - Fast-access memory that is cleared when the computer is powered-down. RAM attaches directly to the motherboard, and is used to store programs that are currently running.
* Firmware is loaded from the Read only memory ROM run from the Basic Input-Output System (BIOS) or in newer systems Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) compliant
* Internal Buses - Connections to various internal components.
o PCI
o PCI-E
o USB
o HyperTransport
o CSI (expected in 2008)
o AGP (being phased out)
o VLB (outdated)
o ISA (outdated)
o EISA (outdated)
o MCA (outdated)
* External Bus Controllers - used to connect to external peripherals, such as printers and input devices. These ports may also be based upon expansion cards, attached to the internal buses.
o parallel port
o serial port
o USB
o firewire
o SCSI (On Servers and older machines)
o PS/2 (For mice and keyboards, being phased out and replaced by USB.)

===Power supply===
{{main|Computer power supply}}
 
A case that holds a transformer, voltage control, and (usually) a cooling fan, and supplies power to run the rest of the computer.
 
[edit] ===Storage controllers ===
 
Controllers for [[hard disk]], [[CD-ROM]] and other drives like internal [[Zip]] and [[Jaz]] conventionally for a PC are [[Integrated Drive Electronics|IDE]]/ATA; the controllers sit directly on the motherboard (on-board) or on expansion cards, such as a [[Disk array controller]]. [[IDE]] is usually integrated, unlike [[SCSI]] which is found in most [[servers]]. The floppy drive interface is a legacy [[MFM]] interface which is now slowly disappearing. All these interfaces are gradually being phased out to be replaced by [[SATA]] and [[Serial Attached SCSI|SAS]].
 
[edit] ===Video display controller===
{{main|Graphics card}}
 
Produces the output for the [[computer display]]. This will either be built into the motherboard or attached in its own separate slot (PCI, PCI-E or AGP), in the form of a [[Graphics Card]].
