Building and assembling a computer system

ABSTRACT



 



Cloning
of Computer System is very essential in a computing area. This project focuses
more on how computer system could be coupled and maintained effectively and
efficiently without any fault during assembling of the system.



Throughout
this project we shall focus on each and every components needed for assembling
and also there functions. The main reason why people go for assembling of
system instead of buying a new system is to allow them to have good and
satisfactory quality of what they want. Buying a new computer system might not
solve the problem of some people but coupling it themselves ease their wounds
when it comes to satisfaction. The main important of coupling a computer system
is to have access to all those components and to know how to couple and disassemble
it when the system is faulty.



This
research has managed to purchase the Sub-Assembly computer components and
couple it to make a computer system that could rival the performance of the
branded version.
