The system unit is the box where all processing takes place. All other devices are attached to it. The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the heart of the computer, and is inside the system unit.
No. The CPU means Central Processing Unit. This is the main processor of the computer. A system unit is the hole unit (or personal computer).
control unit
In general when speaking of computer hardware it is the CPU (central processing unit) also called the processor. As a whole unit though, it is a combination of the CPU, the Motherboard, RAM, and the operating system.
A computer's CPU and hard drive are found in theD. system unit
The CPU IS the computers processing unit as CPU stands for "Central Processing Unit"
A computer system unit is the case with the motherboard and all the ports. The box you unplug and walk around with. The CPU is the Central Processing Unit, this is a chip on the motherboard that does all the processing.People erroneously refer to system unit as CPU.
Your CPU is the central processing unit, or the main body of your computer. A peripheral unit is anything attached to it.

VPU = Visual Processing Unit CPu = Central Processing Unit Here is a link to discussion of VPU Recovery. http://ati.amd.com/products/catalyst/VPU_OVERVIEW.pdf
Central Processing Unit, CPU
CPU
A damaged CPU is generally not user serviceable, assuming you are referring to the CPU chip, and not the system unit.
It is referred to as a 'base unit', and sometimes 'tower'
control unit
In general when speaking of computer hardware it is the CPU (central processing unit) also called the processor. As a whole unit though, it is a combination of the CPU, the Motherboard, RAM, and the operating system.
There is a big difference between these components. Both of them are part of central processor unit but control unit is responsible for generating control signals to all parts of cpu, to handle interrupts, to deal with registers etc. Arithmetic logic unit is part which does arithmetic and logic operations (for example, arithmetic operations are add,subtract,add with carry,subtract with carry,divide... and logic operations are AND,OR,XOR,NOT,NAND,NOR...).
