1.硬件:
顾名思义,硬件只是可以看到和触摸的机器,接线或计算机的其他物理组件,它包含书面指令,告诉这些物理组件要做什么。
2.处理器:
顾名思义,处理器只是解释指令并执行操作(即接收输入并提供适当的输出以及为计算机中运行的其他芯片和组件分配命令)的机器或设备。

Computer Hardware are physicals components of digital or analog computer. | Processor is a small chip present in electronic devices and computers. |
It consist of written instructions that are used to tell physical components about what to do or perform. | It is used to provide instructions and processing power that computer needs to do its work or function. |
Features of hardware includes disk space, memory, processor, speed, usage, etc. | Features of processor includes process size, socket type, processor make and model, cache size, clock speed, etc. |
Benefits of hardware include reduce cost by automating routine tasks, increase employee morale, increase efficiency, etc. | Benefits of processor includes fast calculation, basic computer functionality, dynamic circuit, reduce time, increase speed, etc. |
Type of hardware includes Motherboard, CPU, RAM, Display Screen, etc. | Type of processor includes single core processor, dual core processor, multicore processor, quad core processor, etc. |
Its main purpose is make computer or other electronic device work and execute tasks. | Its main purpose is process data i.e. receive input and provide appropriate output. |
Computer Hardware are important for computer to function and computer cannot work without computer hardware’s. | Processor is needed to run computer and without processor no power gets delivered to components. |
Function of hardware includes input information, processing information, storing information, and displaying information. | Functions of processor include fetching instructions, decode instructions, execute operations, write back. |
