Task 1.
(A computer system is made up of a variety of internal and external components, describe the components and their function, how they communicate with each other and what different types are available.)
Computer systems recently have essentially been split into three categories in terms of hardware. There is the basic build, which accommodates smaller and more basic equipment that is ideal for office use or personal computing. There is then a stylish and fast build which can be used for many purposes like office use, programming, low end gaming and media. There is then a gaming or media build which require the top end equipment to run the latest games or develop HD visual or audio media. These high end machines are very customizable and can be personalised down to small in depth details.
Case:
Plain Computer Cases - (For a very basic and inexpensive build)
These usually smaller cases are designed for space efficiency in offices and homes; cooling and expansion of hardware are not prioritised as these cases are designed for basic computers which would be used to run early games or web surfing and documenting.
Most pre-build computer systems today would come with this type of computer case, a space efficient packed case with little or no customization.
This type of computer case will be built in a way that is often not easy to assemble; this is because this computer type is not really meant to be upgraded much, and is pre-built in a very cramped way.
These cases would have little room for extra internal cooling fans or case fans, because the hardware inside them is likely to not get overworked and overheated easily. These cases will have few rails for additional hard drives and likely would only have one optical drive
Stylish Computer Cases - (For a stylish appearance and decent performing build)
these cases are designed to hold components which allow for lots of media content to be watched or
