[ice]

Hello.
I've been looking for a book that cover most of the computers hardware parts and how they work. Like RAM, CPU, GPU etc. but I can't find any.

Do you guys know any good books?

Thanks


EDIT- A book for educational purpose.

Well, there are tech magazines that cover stuff like that but I can't think of any books. Just look at things online e.g. tomshardware/bittech/andantech

The internet and google will answer alot of your questions.

best way is get a "Building a Computer for Dummies" book and build yourself a bare-bones computer.

Did I say I want to build something?

I had a book with interactive CD when I was little called "How Computers Work". Try looking for that. The hardware will be outdated, but the concepts still apply.

There's a new version of that book if I am not mistaken.. read it somewhere on the net.. and besides, my niece used that book in school too

I have an older copy of this:
http://www.amazon.com/CompTIA-Certi...1338/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1289503512&sr=8-1

It's meant specifically for studying for the A+ Certification exams, but it has a lot of information of the sort of stuff you're looking for.
