Episode 25 — Understanding Motherboards, CPUs, and RAM
In this deep dive, we look at three of the most essential internal components — motherboards, CPUs, and RAM — and their importance to the CompTIA IT Fundamentals (ITF+) certification exam. You’ll learn how motherboards connect and coordinate all system components, how CPUs process instructions, and how RAM stores active data for quick access.
We’ll explore the specifications you might see on the exam, such as CPU clock speed, core count, RAM type, and motherboard form factor, and how these factors influence performance. This knowledge gives you the foundation to understand system capabilities and make informed hardware recommendations. Produced by BareMetalCyber.com.
