Computer specifications as needed
There are various types of computers. From Desktop PC, Laptop, Netbook, until Server. Which one is more suitable for us? Of course we adjust to the needs and comfort us. That must be considered, a computer with Windows Operating System is usually USD 700 thousand more expensive than non-Windows (Linux and DOS). If DOS is too primitive. Linux virtually almost equal to Windows. If you just browse the internet and use Office, Linux is enough for you. Even more convenient because it is safe from viruses. Actually, for other applications such as video editing or Linux Database Applications also good although you have to learn the programming language that runs on Linux such as Java or PHP.
Computer Desktop
If you want a powerful personal computer, the PC Desktoplah choice. With casing and power are great, you can put 4 hard drives with the size of each 1 TB (terabyte) or more, 2 or more DVD writer, and so on. The number of interfaces allows you to connect it to a printer, a scanner (or use the all-in-one at a time), and so on.
In addition, with its large, this PC is not easily stolen. So it gives you a sense of security. Unless the thief is really desperate and professional. The disadvantage of course is not easy to carry everywhere. Less suitable for those of you who are constantly moving from one place to another.
In buying a computer, you should pay attention to:
- processor
Processor is the most important part in a computer. It could be said processor is a brain of a computer system work. For that need to be considered in choosing the type of processor in accordance with the use of our work. There are various brands processsor, but in the business world, there are two major processor vendors that dominate the business world processor. Brand AMD and INTEL. Both of these processor companies competing in the business world, they are always competing to develop the performance of the processor. How to choose the processor that is in accordance with our performance?
If we frequently work with using the Internet and Microsoft Office only, then we can choose a netbook that only uses intel atom processor only. Whereas if we often work with heavy programs like adobe fotoshop, corel, Lightroom, and others using the Intel Core2Duo with a note we have a large budget. But if you only have a mediocre budget, the Intel dual core is perfect for this job. The difference of the two is the intel dual core, the fan rotation is much faster than the Core2Duo, fast processor temperature increases.
- RAM
RAM or often referred to as Random Access Memory also has an important role in the performance of a computer. The function of the Ram itself is to store temporary data required by the processor quickly to be processed into information.
Mushkin RAM output (known as one of the best RAM) running on the specs on PC5300. While the technical specifications of the RAM is running at a speed of 800 MHz, 5-3-3-8 SPD timings and DIMM voltage of 1.8 volts. RAM is wrapped with black heatspreader which likely made by Thermaltake. In addition, it uses chips are chips made by Micron and the PCB using PCB-made brainpower.
High speed RAM is very suitable for those who use the memory bandwidth-hungry processors. Large memory bandwidth is very helpful speeding up the performance of Intel's processors in processing applications is often used for work. In addition, most of the latest chipset for Intel processors (such as Intel's chipset nForce 4 SLI Edition of NVIDIA and Intel 955X chipset) supports the specification of PC6400 RAM unofficially. Therefore, if you use this type of RAM, performance will remain optimal even though the system runs asynchronously.
V-GEN II 512 MB DDR PC-5300
Collaboration Samsung and V-GEN
RAM is a product of first party of SAMSUNG. It can be seen because they stick a sticker label on the body SAMSUNG RAM and writing tergrafirnya SAMSUNG in the PCB. RAM is exactly how it looks with the RAM of MVM. However, the RAM of MVM run on PC4300 specification, while the RAM of the V-gene is carried to run on PC5300 specification. Currently, the RAM runs at a speed of 667 MHz or known as PC5300, the highest RAM specification natively supported by latest motherboard chipsets for Intel. The main advantage of this specification is the RAM with the price. Price of RAM with PC5300 specification has very little difference with RAM running at specs below (PC4300). So buy RAM with PC5300 specification is certainly a better option than buying PC4300 RAM, if you're looking for DDR2-SDRAM memory to accompany the latest PC yours already supports the latest DDR2 specification. This, due to the slight difference in price (between a piece of PC4300 RAM with PC5300 RAM piece that has the same capacity) can be considered as an investment for the future.
- VGA
VGA or Video Grafic Card function converts the digital signal from a computer display graphics on the screen. Usually for a gaming, suitable VGA is ATI RADEON or Gforce, but for computer users without a very heavy program running, VGA from Intel was quite adequate. Usually a VGA capacity used is 512.
- Motherboard
Below are tips on choosing a good motherboard:
* Look for Affordable and Valuable Motherboard In accordance with the objective use of PC *
In accordance with the price motherboard is divided into three segments, namely: Value (affordable), Mainstream (middle) and High End (upscale). First determine the intended use of the PC, if it is used only for the purposes of administration should use the type of Value, if for the use of home entertainment can use mainstream and so on.
* Define Form-design (size) Chassis who want to use *
The motherboard has two size called ATX and Micro-ATX. It refers to the chassis (chassis CPU) used. ATX standard sized (Tower PC), while the Micro-ATX-sized smaller (Mini Tower PC). Commonly used forms-Value Motherboard Micro-ATX design.
* Choose the Right * Chipset
The chipset is the "heart" of the motherboard. Choose chipset with the latest technology, in order to use the latest devices and peripherals. Examples: supports Intel LGA775 Processor, RAM DDR / DDR2 / DDR3, Hard Disk Serial ATA / etc. Common chipset manufacturers in Indonesia include: Intel, Via and SiS.
* Features Integrated Facility (on-board) *
Integrated Facility are additional features that have been included on the motherboard, so we do not need to buy additional peripherals. Examples of integrated features (on-board), among others: Integrated grafics (VGA card), Audio System, LAN, USB, etc. With this facility, we can save money because it can be directly used.
* Warranty and Guarantee Adequate Sales Good *
Warranty is very important to ensure a time when we are experiencing PC problems (trouble), so we do not need to pay for the repairs. Look for brands that truly have a real warranty and trustworthy. Currently the average motherboard has a warranty 1-3 years. Warranty is also related to the after-sales service, which we purchase additional devices or complaints about our products. Manufacturers must be able to guarantee the products are free from defects in materials or defects in the appropriate use of the manual contained in the product during the warranty period and will fix it for:
1. Failure to install the product
2. Bug and error program / coding
This warranty does not apply to:
Support software such as Operating System, Database Service, Security and other utilities.
Interruption or faults or damage caused by software damage to infrastructure (hardware, whether computers or network).
The incidence of force majeure or damage as a result of natural disasters (earthquake, fire, flood, lightning, etc.), riot, errors or omissions user (falls, fractures, exposed to water / chemicals, etc.).
Damage or failure due to the disk drives and the like were disrupted due to dirty.
CD installer is not suitable to be used (dirty / damaged / scratched / moldy etc) due to buyer error.
Disorders, errors or damage caused by software configuration changes and their supporters (eg viruses, trojans, worms and the like).
Damage or failure caused by failure to follow the guidelines that accompany the product.
That is important for us to buy a motherboard on a fairly bona fide dealers.
* Availability of Driver Support *
Driver is an application that serves to "introduce" devices and peripherals installed on the motherboard, such as VGA, Card, Printer, CD-ROM, and so on. Without the driver, the device can not be recognized by the system berjalanan or PC. Make sure the motherboard has been fitted with a CD Drivers are up to dated so it can recognize the new device.
* Compatibility System with Multiple Modules Additional Card *
The point is the suitability of devices and peripherals to the motherboard so that all systems can work accordingly. For example, if the type of RAM or VGA card that we use can work well with the motherboard. Compatibility is an important point, because if there is one device that does not fit the overall mean PC unusable. To determine compatibility, can be checked at dealers or read the manual (guide book) are available.
* Completeness of the motherboard *
Last but not least is the completeness of the motherboard .When buying a motherboard box-packaged must include Driver CD, Manual (Guide Book), Cable ATA / SATA / Floppy and Back-panel (used to coat the back of the casing / as a connector /). Items above the minimum must exist, because we can not assemble a PC without it.
- laptops
For people who are mobile, the laptop is a great choice because it is easy to carry everywhere. In addition to excellent performance, look for a laptop that is also battery endurance long enough so that if there is no electricity, can still operate. Usually the laptop is still no CD / DVD Player / Writer that allows us to enjoy a movie or song. Laptop facilities that need to be considered are: web camera, wi-fie, USB interface, mic, and speakers.
- netbook
Netbooks are smaller in size than a laptop. If the screen size laptop / monitor about 14 inches to the top, then the size is 11 inches Netbook down. With its extremely light weight (less than 1 kg), it is more practical than a Netbook Laptops and convenient to carry everywhere.
- server
Now create a company with the application / program that is used by 4 users or more should use the server. This is because the server is often used, the quality of its components such as the hard drive to be better than a regular desktop PC. Even a good server systems usually have a good back-up so that when the hard drive is damaged, there are others that can replace the hard drive. Some companies even have 2 servers where the Primary Server is the primary server is used, while the back-up server if the primary server automatically replaces damaged.
