How much cache memory is available in Intel i3 Processor?
3 mb
Why was the first Intel Celeron processor not as popular as expected?
The original Intel Celeron processor was not as popular as expected because it lacked the level 2 cache to help reduce the price of the processor. With no level 2 cache, the processor acted much slower than the competitor processors.
What is an example of L2 cache memory size?
Level 2 (L2) cache is built onto the processor. On Older slot-mounted processors, L2 cache was external to the processor die, and ran at slower speeds than the processor. on socketed processors, L2 cache is built onto the processor. If the processor does not find the desired memory locations in L1 cache, it checks L2 cache next. However Processors with larger L2 caches perform most tasks much more quickly than processors that have smaller L2 caches for two reasons. Cache memory is faster than main memory and the processor checks cache memory for needed information before checking main memory.

How does a memory cache speed up computer processing?
Getting data from memory, or the hard drive is slow. If you store a part of the memory you think you will need soon, or often in cache, it will speed up processing by reducing wait time. Cache is much smaller, but much faster than memory and sits on the processor die.
What is processor cache memory?
Processor cache is intermediate memory between the processor itself and main memory (RAM). Because processors can read data so much faster than main memory, the speed of a processor would essentially be limited to the speed of RAM if we couldn't find a way to increase the efficiency of accessing data in main memory. Caches, which have a much lower access time than RAM, help to mitigate this problem. Caches work on the principle of spacial locality. That is to say, they use the idea that if you access a location in main memory, then it is highly likely that the next memory location you want to access is very close to where you are. When you access main memory, the cache will actually pull in a "chunk" of data (often called a "cache line") in the hope that the next time you try to access data it will already be in the cache. Typically there are two levels of cache (though with the increasing popularity of multi-core processors, three levels of cache are becoming more and more necessary). The first level of cache (L1 cache) is what is directly accessed by the processor and is therefore the fastest (and most expensive) cache. L1 cache is usually split into two parts: data cache and instruction cache. The instruction cache holds the instructions of running programs that the processor needs to execute. The data cache holds the data being used by current instructions. The second level of cache (L2 cache) is where the L1 cache pulls in information from. L2 cache is slower than L1 cache, but is more affordable and can be much larger than L1. With the exception of L3 caches mentioned above, this is the cache which pulls information in from main memory.
How much is an iMac with g5 and Intel processor?
The G5 does not have an Intel processor it has an IBM Power PC processor.
What are the Uses of Cache a very high speed memory?
Cache is a high-speed memory device that is placed between a microprocessor and a system memory. A Microprocessor usually can process data at a much faster rate than what the system memory can provide. If this disparity isn't handled, we will end up with a microprocessor that's idling most of the time, because it has to wait on main system memory to provide the (or cosnume) data. With a cache, which could operate at a speed near the processor to shuttle data back and forth between processor and memory. Cache memory relies on a concept in computer science called locality of reference. This concept stipulates that when the processor accesses a piece of data, it is highly likely that it will access data that are also in the same locale in memory. A cache subsystem will fetch the requested data and those around to anticpate the next processor request.
What type of memory stores frequently used instructions or data needed by the CPU?
the memory that directly communicates with the CPU is called Cache Memory this is; When the processor(CPU) needs to read from or write to a location in main memory, it first checks whether a copy of that data is in the cache. If so, the processor immediately reads from or writes to the cache, which is much faster than reading from or writing to main memory. A CPU cache is a cache used by the central processing unit of a computer to reduce the average time to access memory. The cache is a smaller, faster memory which stores copies of the data from the most frequently used main memory locations. As long as most memory accesses are cached memory locations, the average latency of memory accesses will be closer to the cache latency than to the latency of main memory.

What is the Significance of cache miss?
When you have a cache miss, this means that the cache did not contain the information needed by the processor. This means that the information will need to be fetched from memory. Retrieving data from memory is much more costly than from cache, therefore you will incur a "miss penalty" where the CPU will potentially have wasted cycles if there isn't other data it can process while it waits for memory. If the data is not in main memory, then a page fault (YAY My username!) occurs. This is very expensive and means that a lot of processor cycles will be wasted while a page is retrieved from the hard drive.
Which is the better processor amd athlon x2 dual-core processor or Intel Pentium dual-core processor?
AMD anthlon x2 dual core. AMD has more quality. Much faster and hold more space/memory. INTEL are OK, but bad. anything AMD is ALOT better!
