220-1101 Question #118: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

A user asks a technician for recommendations for building a gaming computer. The user has already ordered a high-end power supply, motherboard, and CPU. Which of the following recommendations would the technician MOST likely make for this configuration? (Choose three.)

Options

• ANVMe drive
• BGigabit NIC
• CWebcam
• DDual monitors
• EGraphics processing unit
• FRAM
• GVirtual reality headset
• HHybrid SSD/HDD drive

Explanation

For a high-end gaming PC with a strong foundation, the technician should recommend components crucial for gaming performance: a fast NVMe drive for quick loading, a powerful Graphics Processing Unit for rendering, and ample, high-speed RAM for smooth gameplay.

Common mistakes.

• B. A Gigabit NIC (Network Interface Card) is standard on most modern motherboards and sufficient for internet gaming; it's less of a "recommendation" for a high-end build unless the user specifically had an older NIC.
• C. A webcam is a peripheral for streaming or video calls, not a core component for building a gaming computer's performance.
• D. Dual monitors are an accessory for improved desktop real estate, not a component inside the computer that affects gaming performance.
• G. A virtual reality headset is a peripheral for a specific type of gaming, not a core component of the PC build itself, although a powerful PC is needed to run it.
• H. A hybrid SSD/HDD drive (SSHD) offers a balance of speed and capacity but is generally inferior to a dedicated NVMe SSD for primary game storage in a high-end gaming build.
