What is a cache outside the processor called?
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).
What is the name of the memory cache that is on the die as the processor?
L1, L2 and L3 (depending on the age of your motherboard and processor)
Does Windows XP support uni-processor or multi-processor?
XP Home Edition is limited to one processor DIE. It can have any number of CORES. XP can see all of the cores of a Core 2 Quad, for instance. Even if the system in question had two separate die, or chips, XP would still work. It just wouldn't be able to use the second processor.
What type of processor memory is located on the processor chip processor die?
The type of processor memory located on the processor chip, or processor die, is known as cache memory. This includes various levels, such as L1, L2, and sometimes L3 cache, which are designed to provide high-speed access to frequently used data and instructions, significantly improving processing efficiency. Cache memory is faster than main memory (RAM) and helps reduce latency during data retrieval.
What is the memory of the cache that is closest to the processor die but is not housed on the die?
Level 2 cache (L2 cache)
A type of L2 cache contained within the Pentium processor housing that is embedded on the same core processor die as the CPU itself?
atc bus
What is the name of the memory cache that is closest to the processor die but is not housed on die?
Level 2 cache (L2 cache)
What is a type of L2 cache contained within the Pentium processor housing that is embedded on the same core processor die as the CPU itself?
Execution Trace Cache
What refers to placing two processors on a single processor chip or die?
Multi-core
How do you differentiate physically between an Intel Pentium 4 and an Intel Pentium Dual-Core?
If you are actually able to see the processor die, you should be able to read the text written on the top of the processor.
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.
What is an Intel 80486DX?
The Intel 80486DX is a 32-bit processor that was released by Intel in 1989. It was the first to include its own floating point unit on the same die. 80486SXs are different in that they have this component disabled to make the processor cheaper.
