FAQs

• Available in the market

  • computer case sizes
  • computer case models
• Computer cases are a visible part of our computers
• it is used to serve as a protective structure for the rest of the internal components like motherboard, RAM, hard drive, cooling fans, and other expansions cards from the external influences
• computer cases is also called - PC towers or Computer towers
• full tower case - comes with fair size and weight, which usually has better internal cooling
• Full towers cases have always been excellent for gamers and enthusiasts
• Rails most modern pieces with an easy solution through the tiresome chore of mounting new devices in dry bays
• Back Plates are holes are designed to allow various external connectors on the motherboard the poke through the back of the case
• Punch metal plate is referred to as back plate of the computer case
• Two types of power supply, AT and ATX
• AT i- its older style, it held away from the early days of the PC but they rarely use now
• Most modern PCs use a n ATX power supply
• Power connection - power supplies must plug into power outlet
• Motherboard power - there must be some connection to provide power to the motherboard
• Peripheral Connections - there must be connectors to rpvide power to internal devices
• Fan - this critical component both cools the inside of the power supply and provides a cooling airflow throughout the case
• Power Supply is rated in watts
• Watt - is the standard measurement unit of power, or energy/time
• A PC requires sufficient wattage for the machine to run properly
• If it doesn't receive the necessary amount, several problems occur:

  • The PC will fail to complete the power on self test
  • The PC will complete the POST but will fail to load the operating system
  • The PC will complete the POST and load but it will reboot spontaneously once the load is applied to the CPU or other hardware
• 400 Watts power supply is very common wattage
• The power supply fan provides the basic cooling for the PC
• Power supply fans - it also provides a constant flow of the outside air throughout the interior of the computer case
• Cooling is therefore a vital consideration when building a computer
• Electricity equals heat
• CPU - generates the greatest amount of heat
• Hard drives and memory are susceptible to damage from extreme heat as well
• Case fans - are large, square fans that snap into a special bracket on the case, providing extra cooling for key components
• Molex connector - which easy to plug in
• Drive Bays - cases equipped with special areas to hold storage drives
• there two types of bays

  • external and internal
• external bays

  • have opening that enable them to be accessed from outside the case
  • exp; floppy disk drives and CD-ROM
  • two widths - 3.5 and 5.25 inches
• Internal bays - are used for components like hard drive that you don't need to access once they're installed
• Internal bays - is concealed entirely within the system unit
