Output Peripherals: How Printers, Monitors, Speakers, and Headphones Enhance Your Computer Experience

When you build your own computer, it's not just about the internal components like the CPU and motherboard. Output peripherals play a crucial role in how you interact with your system and enjoy its capabilities. Output devices are responsible for delivering information from your computer to you in various forms such as visuals, sounds, and printed documents.
