Introduzione

The power supply functions exactly as it sounds, it supplies power to the computer. Some components inside the computer need a direct connection to the power supply whereas others may draw power directly through their connection to the motherboard. Many power supply will have power cables that hang loss inside the case. These loss cables are there in case there are new components added to the computer that need them.
