Cache Memory is small fast memory that stores instructions and data frequently used in processing such that when is required, Processor can quickly fetch data rather than reading it from slow storage media.

What type of RAM is used for cache memory?
sram is used for cache for cache memory.
What are the type of cache memory?
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
Memory cache is referred to as?
memory cache is a small amount of RAM (referred to as static RAM) that is much faster than the rest of the RAM, which is called dynamic RAM (DRAM).
A memory cache is small amount of RAM that is much faster than the rest of RAM?
A memory cache is small amount of RAM that is much faster than the rest of RAM?
Is cache memory equal to virtual memory?
No! ; Cache memory is integrated in the CPU. Virtual memory is a part of the hard drive that the OS use as ram memory, when running out of real ram memory.
What are the two types of cache memory?
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
Is Cache memory generally slower than RAM?
Cache memory is random access memory (RAM) that a computer microprocessor can access more quickly than it can access regular RAM. As the microprocessor processes data, it looks first in the cache memory and if it finds the data there (from a previous reading of data), it does not have to do the more time-consuming reading of data from larger memory. Cache Memory generally comes in smaller size (3MB, 6MB etc) than the RAM (512 MB, 1GB,2GB.....)
Which memory is optional to start a computer system?
Random access memory (ram)
What is made up with cache memory?
S RAM...static ram
Does cache memory has a greater capacity than RAM?
No.
If there is L2 cache in the processor housing and additional cache on the motherboard the cache on the motherboard is called cache?
The motherboard doesn't contain cache. The chips do, but the motherboard contain RAM modules. Like when you hear a PC has 512MB of memory. The cache (memory on the chip) follows lines called a bus to the RAM (memory on the motherboard).Answer: Level 3
What is the recommended size of cache memory in a processor?
The maximum size of a cache memory is theoretically equal to the amount of primary memory(RAM).Like Cache only memory architecture where the whole memory space is filled up with the cache only.
