Getting to know your PC Interfaces
Published November 24th, 2005 in PC, TV's, Technology
On Tom’s Hardware Guide they have a good guide on introducing you to all the cables that are inside and outside your computer as well as general video cables you would use in your TV.
Every computer system, whether a desktop PC or a notebook, includes a bunch of connectors, both inside and out. Can you recognize each and every one of them? Relevant handbooks, when they’re even available, are often poorly worded or insufficiently illustrated. This causes readers to lose their orientation and leads to confusion and frustration.
This comprehensive advisor is intended to function as a reference, aimed at helping newbies and experienced users alike. With numerous pictures and short explanations, we’ll tell you all about the slots, ports, and connectors you’ll find on your PC, and what kinds of devices typically attach (or plug in) to them.
So if you think this is for you then check it out. Even if you think you know it all you may not. I, for one, wasn’t that sure on S-ATA cables, nor did I know that SPDIF stood for ‘Sony/Phillips Digital Interfaces!
