Port Forwarding Explained

what is port forwarding now maybe you've heard about it but you weren't exactly sure what it was or how it works so basically port forwarding allows computers over the Internet to connect to a specific computer or service within a private network it's basically making your computer accessible over the Internet even though you're behind a router so for example let's say a friend of yours at their home wants to remotely control your computer at your home using a service such as remote desktop connection now remote desktop connection is a service built into Microsoft Windows that enables you to connect to another computer running Microsoft Windows and then once you're connected to the remote computer you can use that computers programs and files just as if you were sitting in front of it so now your friend is ready to connect to your computer so we starts up the remote desktop connection and sends the request to your public IP address with a specific port number no...

See How Computers Add Numbers In One Lesson

see how computers add numbers in one lesson inside a computer you'll find a motherboard the motherboard acts like the chassis inside a car giving all the components something to connect to on the motherboard is the microprocessor most micro processors have some jagged metal on top called a heatsink to prevent overheating if you remove the microprocessor and look underneath you'll see a lot of wires sticking out that connect from the holes on the motherboard to the main part of the microprocessor the microprocessor is made up of different areas that do different things such as adding or storing numbers these areas are mostly made up of one thing though the transistor here is a 3d view of one the transistors base is a semiconductor which sometimes conducts electricity and sometimes does not the semiconductor has positively charged areas and negatively charged areas electricity will not flow between the two yellow areas unless a conducting channel is opened up in the green area a ...

RAM Explained - Random Access Memory

hello everyone in this Article we're going to talk about one of the most important parts of a computer and we're going to be talking about primary memory or temporary storage and this is called RAM Ram stands for random access memory RAM is stored on the motherboard in modules that are called dims dim stands for dual inline memory module a dim is a dual inline module because it has two independent rows of these pins one on each side a dim memory module has either 168 184 240 or 288 pins and then the dim is installed on the motherboard in the memory slots a motherboard can have a various number of memory slots the average motherboard will have between 2 and 4 of them in order for data or program to run on a computer it needs to be loaded into Ram first so the data or program is first stored on the hard drive then from the hard drive it's loaded into Ram and once it's loaded into Ram the CPU can now access the data or run the program now a lot of times if the memory is to...

What is a Chipset?

one of the main and one of the most important components you'll find on the motherboard is the chipset older motherboards were designed with a lot of different chips scattered all over the motherboard there were chips for different things like chips for bus controllers memory controllers keyboard controllers and so on so they had a lot of different chips controlling different functions on the motherboard so as technology progressed computer engineers decided to reduce a number of chips and have them more in a centralized location so instead of having these different chips scattered all over the motherboard controlling different functions they reduce the number of chips to do the same job and condense them to only a few chips or what's now called a chipset and that's what a chipset is a chipset is a smaller set of chips that has replaced a larger amount of chips and the chipsets job is to control data flow between the CPU the peripherals bus slots and memory so all of the di...
