How to find if my hardware supported by Ubuntu?

Question

It is better to let make sure if System can/will be worked effectively & efficiently.

So, before installing Ubuntu, how can I find out if my hardware like motherboard components, graphics card, etc, are supported by Ubuntu?

Can I find through model or chipset or as better as possible?

Your best way to know if your hardware will work is to download ubuntu from here then burn the image and set your computer to boot from that image whether it is in livecd or liveusb format and run it in the try mode and see for yourself if your hardware works. You may have to install a driver for your wireless to work it all depends on your wireless card type.
