good hardware education sites?

Hey everyone,
I was looking for websites that will teach you the ins and outs of computer hardware. Im going to college next year and want an upper hand.


Thanks everyone,
Ben

I use Tom's Hardware.

Thanks for the suggestion bud. I was moreso looking for a site that will straight teach...

Thanks everyone,
Ben

Here are some options:

Do-It-Yourself Tutorials on PC Hardware

Tutorials | Hardware Secrets

I still think your best bet is a forum though, because you'll get more in depth information there than a straight up educational perspective. If you go with something like Tom's Hardware and a general tutorial you can read the tutorial to get a general overview and then ask for tips on the forum so that you'll get the best information.

Thanks bud,
I guess i didnt look enough into the site enough. I will check these out in depth later. God, i hate accounting class, but you gotta pay attention!

Thanks,
Ben

No problem, by the way, this site is somewhat useful as well. It may be a Windows 7 forum, but I'm guessing that 70% of the regular users built their own computer and would be able to help you. I know for a fact that we've got a few MVP's kicking around that know their computer better than the back of their hand.

I know that this site is amazing. Ive been a member to vistax64.com for a long time. I love the information on here, but i literally know nothing at all about hardware. Thats why i was looking for straight eduaction type of sites.

Thanks,
Ben
