Which two categories are used to classify CPU architecture?
CISC and RISC are the two categories that are used to classify CPU architecture. CISC is an acronym for complex instruction set computer.
Type instruction set used by CPU that has a large number of instructions?
CISC (complex instruction set computing)
What kind of software tests the CPU OCCT stress?
OCCT is a software program for checking the stability of a PC by performing stress-tests upon the PC's CPU. In general, this means sending large quantities of highly complex instructions to the CPU in an unending stream, which is contrary to typical computer programs which typically won't be constantly doing work through the CPU. As a result, the electrical components of the CPU will heat up faster, and any flaws or stress failures in the CPU design can be shown much faster.
Is The ALU part of the CPU?
Yes, it is fundamental to the operation of even the most basic CPU. ALU stands for Arithmetic Logic Unit. It is the part of the processor which deals with basic logic and mathematical operations (not to be confused with an FPU, which performs more complex calculations of the same nature in a floating point representation). ALUs can be as simple or complex as necessary.
What is CPU protection?
CPU protection is one who protect the CPU. and the one who destroy the CPU also is the one who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the one who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the one who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the one who protect the CPU and the one who destroy the CPU is the one who protect the CPU.
What are advantages and disadvantages of multiprocessing?
advantage 1.higher performance due to parallel processing. 2.if one CPU get failed other CPU are used to do that CPUs job. disadvantage 1.complex OS is required. 2.large main memory requried. 3.very expensive.
What A CPU really only understands instructions that are written in machine language.?
A CPU will have an "instruction set" which consists of primitive instructions i.e a command like MOVE:1002,1003 could be an example of an instruction to move the contents in memory location 1002 to the memory location of 1003. Some CPU's operate as a RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer) and others operate as a CISC(Complex Instruction Set Computer). Which basically means some have more "primitive instructions" than others but the more complex an instruction is - The more work will be needed to execute it. Alan Turing proved only 6 of these primitive commands are needed to compute anything that is "computable" by machines. Nowadays, programmers will write code in an "high level" language which contains more of these "primitive commands" but then the code will be compiled into a set of instructions that the CPU can actually execute (i.e to the instruction set of the targeted CPU). If we were to try to write any sufficiently complex program using only the instruction sets of CPU's, it would become very complicated for humans to understand and would take a ridiculously long time.
What is the CPU temperature range?
The Cpu Temperature is The Maximum/Minimum temperature of Cpu, You have to be inside these limits for your Cpu Safety
Do you get a CPU cooler if you buy a Intel CPU?
Yes you will as CPU manufactures prefer if you use there CPU cooler as the cooler has been designed for the thermal rating of the CPU.
When evaluating CPU performance which is not a feature you need to concider?
Weight. Any variation that can affect performance should be considered. (Which is basically everything.) Including what program(s) are being run, and the differences in architecture to other CPU's you are comparing it to. The science behind the design of CPU's is too complex to ignore a feature. Branch prediction for instance is something that the average person knows nothing about, put it can strongly effect the performance of the CPU. (Though it is impossible to measure the exact speed up for a random program.)
Which is a feature of the CPU?
Which is a feature of the CPU
Is it good or bad for a CPU to have multiple cores?
The more cores/processors the more independent parallel tasks a CPU/microprocessor has the potential to run at the same time (not serially timeshared on a single core/processor). This is usually considered good as it improves the effective processing speed of the CPU/microprocessor without having to run on a faster clock. However it can also be considered bad as it makes the CPU/microprocessor more complex and harder to build, usually making it more expensive. But ultimately it is a trade off and you must pay for what you get.
