  • Heat sink is a small ceramic or metal component with fins on its surface that absorbs and disperses heat produced by electrical components, such as processor.
  • Liquid cooling technology uses a continuous flow of fluids, such as water and glycol, in a process that transfers the heat fluid away from the processor to a radiator-type grill, which cools the liquid and then returns the cooled fluid to the processor.
  • After years of competing for the market share, there are currently two major c. manufacturers-the INTEL and AMD.
  • When was Intel Corporation founded on July 18, 1968
  • and the holder of the xe processor architecture patent. It was established by Robert Noyce and Gordon Moores
  • Pentium || is a widely-used personal computer microprocessor from the Intel Corporation.
  • Pentium || was introduced to the market on May 7, 1997
  • What is the code name for Pentium ||?
    Klamath
  • Pentium ||| is a microprocessor designed especially for applications written to take advantage of its Katmai New Instructions.
  • Pentium ||| was introduced on February 26, 1999 and named as Katmai during the development.
  • Celeron is a less powerful version of Pentium II
  • Celeron was introduced on June 1998. This chip is similar to Pentium Il but uses new Covington core.
  • Celeron chips are designed for low-cost computers and are used by those who do not use intensive software programs and computer games. They can be used for symmetric multiprocessing.
  • Pentium |V is a computer processor developed and manufactured by Intel on November 20, 2000.
  • It is a single-core processor and is designed to enhance the speed of online gaming, digital video and photography.This chip is used in desktop and laptop computers.
    Pentium |V
  • Dual Core is a processor that enables two processing units to work simultaneously in the same integrated circuit.
  • Dual Core processor can function well as a single processor but can perform operations up to twice as quickly. In this, each processor has its own cache and controller.
  • Core 2 Quad was introduced on July 27, 2006
  • Core 2 quad was designed based on the Core microarchitecture. It is composed of Solo (single-core), Duo (dual-core), Quad (quad-core) and Extreme (dual or quad-core CPUs enthusiasts) versions. It contains 4 processing units in the same integrated circuit.
  • Core 2 Quad is a processor designed for businesses.
  • Core i3 comes from a family of dual-core intended for entry-level desktops and laptops.
  • Core i3 offers HD graphics, sophisticated video engine that provides efficient and advance 3D capabilities, This processor has lower heat generation and conservative battery usage. It is also equipped with Intel Hyper-Threading Technology which enables each core of the processor to dual tasking.
  • Core i5 is a quad-core or dual-core processor that can be used both in desktop and laptop computers.
  • Core i5 is suited well for creating HD video, composing digital music, editing photos or playing computer games. It has a Turbo Boost feature which boosts the core speed of the processor beyond its level for optimal performance.
  • Core i7 is an 8-core CPU from Intel that was introduced in 2008.
  • Core i7 also supports Hyper-Threading and Turbo
    Boost Technology.
    It offers an extraordinary
    breakthrough in quad-core performance and highlights the latest innovations in processor technologies.
  • Core i9 is an Intel series which supports quad-channel DDR memory at speeds of up to 2666 MHz. It is faster than the Core i7 chips and is more expensive.
  • Core i9 was introduced into the market in 2017.
  • AMD Inc. stands for Advanced Micro Device
  • AMD is an American multi-national semiconductor company based in Sunnyvale California, United States. AMD is the second largest manufacturer of microprocesson next to Intel.
  • Duron is a low-cost processor developed by AMD
  • Duron was introduced on June 19, 2000.
  • Duron was released as a competitor to Intel's Celeron processor.
  • In 2004, Duron was discontinued and it was replaced by Sempron processor.
  • Sempron is a 32-bit microprocessor used for AMD's low-end CPUs which was introduced in 2004.
  • Ryzen is designed specifically for gamers and PC enthusiasts who want a high-performance CPU.
  • Ryzen was introduced in 2017
  • Memory holds both the data that needs to be processed, as well as the data that has already been processed.
  • 2 types of memory - Volatile memory and non volatile memory
  • Volatile is a computer memory that requires active power connection to function.
