Computer Performance

1. Cores

   • A CPU core is a CPU’s processor
   • CPUs with multiple cores have more power to run multiple programs at the same time.

2. RAM

   • RAM gives applications a place to store and access data on a short-term basis
   • With faster RAM, you increase the speed at which memory transfers information to other components

3. Clock speed

   • Clock speed is the rate at which a processor can complete a processing cycle. It is typically measured in megahertz or gigahertz.
   • This helps your computer complete more tasks by getting them done faster

4. Cache

   • Cache is a small amount of memory which is a part of the CPU
   • A cache enables the processor to retrieve data quickly, making your overall system more efficient
