I came accross people who said it was the casing, which surprised me a lot. So, basically, I wanna see if I'm normal Personnally I think it is the mobo. Why ? Because when something's not going the right way, replacing the case never comes to my mind... But that's just me.
With everything being thrown into gfx cards right now, I'd have to say it's becoming if not already the most important part. After all you can still run all the latest software on a 1-1.5 ghz system.
i go for the motherboard purely because it is the backbone of the computer and does he difficult job of linking and coordinating all the different components.
probably everything is important bcos without one component the others wont work(and the other way round for all the other components. all the components form a comp, if any goes, comp wont work
Well, I'd have to say the motherboard. With the level of integration, you can have pretty much everything save the CPU, RAM and disc/disk drives.
Lets see.... everything connects into the....... MOBO. Its by far the most important part to any workstation or server.
i think the poll should have been the least important component.. lots of arguements there on what is becoming obsolete and what is not...
If you read the first post, you will see why the poll was made this way. Although it could be interesting to see what people think regarding this matter.
The case is probably about the least important part. It's a case, and it's not a necessity to run the system. Hell, you don't even really need a hard drive---you can get a PCI card and make a "hard drive" with RAM...unfortunately, this is pretty expensive to do, but you don't really need a hard drive. A power supply is one of the more important things, though. If it's a crappy one or just not big enough, you can compromise stability.
i've voted 4 the monitor, since your eyes are one of the most important body-parts, and staring at a bad monitor can affect them irreversibly.
i've voted 4 the monitor, since your eyes are one of the most important body-parts, and staring at a bad monitor can affect them irreversibly. and there it would be the kb and the mouse, since are the peripherals most used by humans. sorry about triple posting. wont happen again. i hope at least.
Motherboard, but the i would usually say the technician behind somone whos building a computer, if they are an idiot, its usually them whos the problem and not the hardware.
I have to agree there. I think some people need to do some more research before building their own PC or not do it. There are some people that just aren't mechanically inclined, and while they may want to, they just don't have what it takes---either naturally or learned---to work with a PC.
I reckon its all the most important bit. Without any of the components (mobo,cpu,graphics card,cooling,psu) it just wont work. Even if you got all the components you still need a cd rom to make the thing work cos you need an os! The least important bit should have been the question, and I think its the case!
