L1 and L2; Many years ago L1 was the only cache memory integrated into the CPU (processor) and L2 had to be added to the motherboard. Currently (as of year 2013), CPUs implement both L1 and L2 cache in the casing of the processor. Thus, processors (CPUs) ship with amounts of L2 cache independent for each processor core.

∙ 13y ago- the data needed to the processor go through the ram.
- ram doesnt have ability to supply data in the required speed of processor
- bcz ram speed
- To overcome this shortcoming

Is cache memory necessary in motherboard?
Cache memory is not on the motherboard, it is inside the microprocessor chip so that it is as close as possible to the CPU itself.
When evaluating CPU memory do you check the cache memory?
The only memory on the CPU is cache memory and it is only dependent on the CPU type and generation you use.
What is L1 cache?
Fast access memory which is inside the actual CPU chip.
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.
What is the function of CPU cache?
Many CPUs have what is known as a CPU cache. The function of this CPU cache is to speed up access to data.
What is the objective of cache only memory architecture?
Cache memory is the high speed memories which are repeatedly requested by the Cache client (CPU). Whenever the requested data from the cpu is present in the cache, it directly supply the data and is known as cache hit(fast) and when the data is not accessible in cache then cache access the block of the main memory and feed to the CPU and it is termed as cache miss (slow).
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.
Cache memory does not affect the performance of the CPU?
true
Where the constantly needed data is stored?
Constantly needed data is stored in RAM, and depending on the system and the CPU used, it may be stored in cache memory. Cache memory is a special, high-speed type of RAM. It is more expensive and uses more current than DRAM, but it is used where speed is critical. Cache memory is generally inside of the CPU these days.
What do you know about cache?
cache is the type of memory within the CPU. It is extremely fast and is very small storage wise (it only comes in megabytes)
What are cache memory levels determined by?
the chip's proximity to the CPU
Cache memory levels are determined by?
By a chip's proximity to the CPU.
