"PC hardware. Almanac" is a comprehensive guide for everyone who assembles, upgrades and repairs PCs compatible with the Intel platform. In addition to basic information and tips, the authors gave a detailed discussion of motherboards, processors, memory, floppy drives, hard drives, optical drives, streamers, graphics cards, input devices, audio components, communication ports, power supplies and many other elements.

Those who want to purchase a PC will find out what to pay attention to and what to avoid. Those who want to assemble computers will learn all the key components one by one and find out which devices are worth buying and how to assemble a working PC from them. Owners of older equipment will learn how to modernize it and whether it makes sense at all. Owners of "failing" computers will learn to locate the causes of problems and correctly select and install "spare parts".

The book has been updated to describe the latest PC components available on the market.
  • Detailed information about new motherboards and chipsets produced by companies: Intel, NVIDIA, SiS and VIA.
  • A thorough discussion of Intel Pentium 4 and Pentium 5 and AMD Athlon, Opteron and Athlon 64 processors

  • All about the latest and future standards for hard drives, including SCSI, ATA / 133, Serial ATA and 48-bit logical block addressing

  • Comprehensive information about LCD monitors, tips for buyers and discussing the advantages and disadvantages of these devices
  • Plenty of information on how to deal with problems

The summary of the book is a chapter showing in the smallest details, how to buy assembled subassemblies working PC. If you are a computer hardware freak, "PC Hardware. Almanac" should be in the place of honor in your library - if you are not a geek, you will be using this book.
