Computer hardware refers to the physical, tangible components of a computer or electronic device that you can see and touch. It includes both internal parts like the CPU, motherboard, and memory, and external peripherals such as the keyboard, mouse, and monitor. These physical components perform the tasks of processing, storing, and displaying data, and are the foundation upon which software runs.

Internal hardware

Central Processing Unit (CPU): The "brain" of the computer that performs calculations and executes commands.

Motherboard: The main circuit board that connects all the internal components together.

Memory (RAM): Temporary storage for data that the CPU needs to access quickly.

Storage Devices: Long-term storage for data, such as hard drives or solid-state drives (SSDs).

Graphics Card: Processes and outputs visual information to the monitor.
