A discrete L2 cache is in the same housing as the processor, but resides on a separate microchip. It typically runs at half the speed of the processor, unlike ATC which resides on the same microchip as the processor and runs at the same speed as the CPU.

Is a DRAM variation that is designed for computers with multi-core processors?
That would be DDR-3 memory. Some multi-core systems use DDR-2 memory. Then of course there is cache memory, but that is a variation of SRAM, and it has been used ever since the 386 or 486 machines. Nowadays, cache memory is not in discrete chips, but a part of the processor. Placing the cache memory and memory controller on the CPU die greatly improves the throughput.
What factors impact the performance of cache?
There are many factors that can affect cache performance, such as cache size, cache block size, association and replacement algorithm
What is cache latency?
delay to access the data in cache in context of processor's speed. Time to access the requested data in cache , at that time processor have to wait .. is called cache latency.
What cache was historically on the motherboard but now often comes on a CPU?
motherboard cache
Is cache memory a removable memory?
No, a cache memory is often used to store data that has been needed recently on grounds that it will be faster to access when/if it is needed again. When data that is requested is contained in the cache you have a cache hit, and when you have to retrieve it from the hard drive (or where ever its original storage was) again it is called a cache miss. Retrieving data from the hard drive is slower than retrieving it from the cache.
What is the difference between the locations of discrete L2 cache and advanced transfer cache?
On-Package L2 cache (discrete L2 cache) is on a separate microchip within the processor housing, while Advanced Transfer Cache (ATC) is located directly on the same die as the processor core.
What is the difference between the locations of the L2 cahe and the Advanced Transfer Cache?
The discrete L2 is located within the processor housing, on a separate chip. The Advanced Transfer Cache is located directly on the processor die itself.
When was Cache Cache created?
Cache Cache was created in 1981.
