What is Computer Building?
Computer building is the process of selecting, assembling, and configuring individual computer components to create a complete, functional computer system. In our class, you’ll learn these skills through hands-on practice with demonstration devices and realistic computer simulations, allowing you to understand how computers work without the cost of purchasing components.
How Our Class Works
Our computer building education uses a combination of practical and virtual learning:
Demonstration Devices: We provide real computer components that you can handle, examine, and practice assembling. These include motherboards, CPUs, RAM modules, graphics cards, and other essential parts that you can physically connect and disconnect.
Computer Simulations: Advanced simulation software allows you to practice builds virtually, experiment with different configurations, and see how components interact without risk of damage or cost.
Guided Assembly: Step-by-step instruction using our demonstration hardware ensures you understand proper techniques and safety procedures.
Virtual Testing: Simulation software lets you “boot up” your virtual builds and see how different component choices affect performance.
