[Zasean]

Can someone  explain  to  me  how  to  differentiate  parts by their names?

Can you rephrase the question?

Can  you  explain  what  the different  parts of  the motherboard  cpu  and gpu  names mean

Sounds like you're trying to complete a grade 6 project for computers.

 

What exactly parts are you looking for identification of? Specific chips on a board? swappable consumer parts? there's just way too much vagueness to your question.

Swappable  parts and chips for what board

There are some fantastic videos on the LTT youtube channel that not only goes over the parts, but shows how to build and install. I really recommend watching them

motherboard - the big board in which all things are installed (processor, memory, video card, sound card if desired, other extension cards)

cpu = central processing unit, the processor, the brains ... the chip that does all the calculations.

gpu = graphics processor unit  ... the chip that's usually on video cards and which translates instructions and information sent to it into images that are shown on the screen.

  • Brand, Model family, model name, clock speed, number of cores
• ASRock - Z370M-ITX/ac Mini ITX LGA1151
  • Brand, Chipset with model name and form factor + mention of wireless adapter, form factor, socket
• Corsair - Vengeance RGB 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200
  • Brand, model family and name, "capacity", number of sticks, generation, clock speed.
• Sapphire - Radeon RX 580 8GB NITRO+ 
  • Brand, Model family, model name, video memory, special version name (means factory overclocked or special cooling)
