If the CPU is the "brain" of the computer, and the RAM is the "muscle", how about the motherboard? What about the other components?
>>
Skeleton or maybe vascular system. Irrelevant as computers aren't organisms
>>
>>56474624
Mhm and the video card is they feel and vision of the computer
>>
>>56474416
The GPU is the dick.
>>
>>56474416
cpu is the brain
ram is the piss pot that you don't want to get too full
motherboard is the torso
gpu the second half of your lobotomised brain
hard drive is the third
optical drives are like your anus that's ready to receive things
psu is your stomach and guts
sound card is like a hideous naval piercing
>>
>>56474416
RAM is the short term memory, duh.
Mobo is the spine
HDD/SDD is the long term memory.
Graphic card is your eyes and back of your brain that process the sight.
PSU is the heart
>>
>>56474416
Why are people so shit at analogies?
>>
The motherboard is the skeleton, the gpu is the eyes, the HDD is the colon, full of random shit
And the audio card is the appendix.
>>
>>56474690
underrated

What is the penis of a computer? And the asshole?
>>
>>56474824
The penis is the 3.5mm headphone jack
The asshole is the user
>>
>>56475025
No wonder Apple cucks are accepting the removal of the 3.5mm jack then.

How is the motherboard not the spine?

Greatest analogy for computers
>>
>>56474416

analogies are for children and retards

you're better off understanding HOW every component works
>>
>>56474712
Naw, you want ram as full as possible most of the time, but to be able to be quickly and efficiently emptied for other use as needed.
>>
>>56474416
No, cpu represents a cell. The nucleus initiates a program by ejecting rna, and rna transcriptors read the rna molecule by molecule to create a protein. It works like a program counter and instruction decoder. Cells can perform this shit in parallel so even a multicore processor would still make the entire computer a single cell organism.
>>
>>56475272
Finally, a tripfag I can agree with.

Analogies are awful non-arguments.
>>
>>56474624
>computers aren't organisms
tell this to my robo waifu
>>
>>56475136
Actually, insofar as we're using body as our analogy(which is completely retarded, obviously), I'd argue that motherboard is the nervous system, since it's the part that makes every other part work together.
>>
>>56475272
>>56475272
i mean that pretty much explains it
>>
>>56474416
Analogies are all you really need. The cpu is the brain is basically the same shit as saying the cpu does calculations
>>
The whole computer is the brain you fucking idiot.
>>
A computer is basically a brain in a box, not a full person.

>RAM
Short term memory

>Hard drive
Long term memory

>CPU/GPU
Frontal lobe (although human though still isn't fully understood)

>Motherboard
Connective neurons

>Input devices
Senses eg: sight, smell, touch etc

>Outputs (screen/printer etc)
Speech, muscle reactions

>Power supply
Heart

>>56476991
Most accurate one.
>>
All of you are retarded, these analogies will simply limit your ability to abstract how computers deal with information.
>>
>>56474624
The case would be the skeleton
>>
>>56474416
I wanna say the ram is more like the nervous sytem or cortex
>>
>>56475136
The spine is the bus or maybe ram so the bus can be the nerves
>>
>>56475272
Analogies let you guess at how it works so its easier to learn come time. Then knowing how it works lets you work woth this one and make the next one.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS SHIT WILL SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE ME A GODDAMN FOOD ANALOGY???

daaaaang

This guy gets it.

Fan and cooler are the fart system.

the cables n shiet is like spaghetti

CPU is the cortex (or frontal lobe or whatever handles higher brain function).
memory controller and RAM are whatever part of the memory deals with short term memory.
storage is, you guessed it, long term memory. deeply tied to the latter.
chipset and BIOS are the brainstem; vital shit like breathing, digestion, e tc.
the countless circuits of your motherboard, coupled with the cables you later insert, could be considered a circulatory system of sorts.
the sockets, bone structure. the screws and tie wraps, tendons?
the case; flesh, skin,
front and real panel IO; assorted sensory organs.
>>
>>56479033
Thank you good sir. And hyperthreading is simply like having more cables per spaghetti, right?
>>
>>56474416
The dick of the computer is the end-user, ofc
