Sorry if the heading is not correct, I couldn’t think of the exact words.
What I mean by “how to understand hardware” is that I want to purchase a PC for my home-lab, and I can’t really tell what hardware is best. I’m not asking for suggestions on specific PC parts, instead, I want to learn how to identify hardware on my own. For example, if we are talking about RAM, then I can figure that how much ram it is and what it can do and stuff. Basically, I want to learn how to truly “know” hardware.

Generally you can look at the sticker-labels. If the basic information isn’t immediately obvious from the label, you can google parts of the label and find the information online.
