It's strictly a function of speed. To read what's in cache, the processor does not need to address the buss and wait for the response. Cache memory is available instantly.
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
Look in the temporary internet files on the hard drive of the computer to find the cache memory in windows 7. There you should be able to see the cache files.
There are different type of cache memory: processor cache memory, cache memory ram,1 cache memory l2, cache memory, CPU cache memory, disk cache memory, hard disk cache, cache memory motherboard.
memory cache is on memory RAM, disk Cache is on the hard drive. They make things to get faster. For instance Google Earth use this disk cache to show you offline images.
The only memory on the CPU is cache memory and it is only dependent on the CPU type and generation you use.
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.
because cache memory is costlier than main memory and physical size of cache memory also matters.ignoring the cost , if we use large cache memory, it will take larger physical space.so mother board won't be able to accomodate it
No! ; Cache memory is integrated in the CPU. Virtual memory is a part of the hard drive that the OS use as ram memory, when running out of real ram memory.
Cache memory normally stored instructions and data that the processor likely to use frequently.
No cache memory is not visible.....
Register memory are smaller in size than cache memory and registers are faster than cache..Cache memory store the frequently used data from main memory..
Cache is a high speed buffer memory for storing automatically small areas of frequently used memory, so that the machine does not have to wait for the full memory access time every time it needs to access the data in those areas.Most computers have separate but similar cache memories for data and instructions. This allows the same access time advantages for both, but as data and instructions are usually in different places in memory eliminates any conflicts in usage.Some computers have multiple levels of different speed cache with different sizes. These are typically referred to as L1 cache, L2 cache, L3 cache, etc. with L1 being the fastest, most expensive, smallest size cache closest to the processor; the others are successively closer to the main memory.
