L2 cache.

Today's processors all have some memory on the processor chip (called a die). Memory on the processor die is called Level 1 cache (L1 cache). Memory in the processor package, but not on the processor die, is called Level 2 cache (L2 cache). Some processors use a third cache farther from the processor core, but still in the processor package, which is called Level 3 cache (L3 cache).

If there is L2 cache in the processor housing and additional cache on the motherboard the cache on the motherboard is called cache?

The motherboard doesn't contain cache. The chips do, but the motherboard contain RAM modules. Like when you hear a PC has 512MB of memory. The cache (memory on the chip) follows lines called a bus to the RAM (memory on the motherboard).Answer: Level 3
