computer performance

1. RAM

   • Stores the programs, parts of the operating system and the files currently being used.
   • Generally, the faster the RAM, the faster the processing speed. With faster RAM, you increase the speed at which memory transfers information to other components.

2. CORES

   • The number of independent processors in the CPU which run the fetch decode execute cycle simultaneously.
   • CPUs with multiple cores have more power to run multiple programs at the same time.

3. CLOCK SPEED

   • The number of fetch decode execute cycles a CPU can perform per second. This is measured in hertz (Hz).
   • A computer's processor clock speed determines how quickly the central processing unit (CPU) can retrieve and interpret instructions. 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 - closer to the CPU than RAM. It is used to temporarily hold instructions and data that the CPU is likely to reuse.
