Building a PC: All Parts Needed & Software to Install

AI Thread Summary
All necessary PC parts can typically be purchased from hardware stores, but availability may vary by country. The discussion highlights the importance of choosing the right processor type and programming language, with options including assembler, C, and Basic. Devices like Arduino and Picaxe are recommended for simpler programming tasks. Users are encouraged to specify their needs for better assistance in identifying parts and software for installation on Windows or Linux. Overall, building a PC requires careful consideration of components and software based on individual requirements.

can all the parts be bought in hardwares? and if anyone has done this can you please give me all the parts needed, also the software you need to install using windows or linux

It depends on the type of processor you want to program.

There are programmers for programming assembler languages.

There are also programming devices for programming in C or in Basic. These are simpler to learn than the Assembler programming techniques. These are the Arduino and Picaxe, among others.

You also have to consider what is available in your country. Some devices are not easily imported into some countries.
 


I think the OP is talking about replacing the processor with discreet transistors. Good luck. If this could actually be done then no software should be necessary other than what we already use.

Yes, absolutely, that stuff are called DSP, CPLD and FPGA, or a digital circuit made out of miraids of logic gate if you bother...

What exactly are you trying to buy? I can probably help you out.
 

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
