The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is one of the most important parts of a computer
system. It has a huge impact on the overall performance of any computer. If you have the
opportunity, it is better to select the CPU before selecting the motherboard. Existing
motherboards limit your choice of CPUs, forcing you to fit the CPU to the motherboard.
If the performance of the computer is crucial to the successful completion of a task, then
choosing the CPU first is especially important; for example, if you are working on a
computer that will be used for high-end graphics, the CPU’s speed needs to be greater
than that used in a computer for general business applications.
Research is important in determining the best CPU for your money. This can be done by
checking your choices of CPUs against industry benchmarks
Your employer has asked you to purchase and install faster CPUs into several of the
company’s aging computers; however, you’ve only been given $180.00 per computer to
work with. Using the computer featured in the Computer Hardware Simulator (CHS) as
the one to upgrade, using the CHS motherboard to work with, search the Internet for two
different CPUs that are compatible with the computer and enter information for each
CPU into the chart below. Then choose which CPU and accompanying fan, if necessary,
you would purchase and explain your decision
Write a technical paper describing the process, in sequence, of replacing a CPU. The
paper should be 1 to 2 pages in length. The paper does not need to be in APA style. For
example, you can design the paper to look like a technical document or technical note
that would appear in a computer maintenance manual, like the one you will be
developing for your Learning Team project
Appendix G - Memory Worksheet
Powerful Central Processing Units (CPUs) demand large amounts of data, and they need
that data fast. Otherwise, the CPU performance is hindered by the lack of data storage
support; therefore, computers have been designed to supply that data through tiering
