CPU(Central Processing) - the main hardware used for processing
what are the different sorts of CPU's?
- core 2 Duo - (Intel produced)
There is an enormous range of Cpu's and their name implies with what processers their buit for. Well Processors are the things in your hardrive that take intruction in and processes it..feed through linerly..
duo... means they can double the process done at the same time
processor speed unit... it operates at so many.."gigahertz"(GHTz) is one
Hertz - is how many cycles per second - unit of measurement of how rapid things work
Processors have clock in which has Clock Cycle - determine how quick intructions can come in and be processed out.The more Hertz, the quicker the process works. We need to overlook this because its im
Only potential if the software uses this feature, the process need to formated into the software
Another Processor is "Quad Core" - also made by Intel
Instructions can be different sizes.... eg. 30 bit processor, 60 Bit Process
how big an instructions is - the bigger, the more complex and involved the intruction can be.
A unit of measure for instructions.
Maximum size an instruction cna be
All modern processors are 64 Bits.. the bigger, the expensive and complex to be made.
Depending teh software size, depends if they have
Arithemetic logic units - handles mathematical stuff within the core if the processor
do we need the most powerful processor? Depending the things ur doin,
If your doing graphic words, video Editing
There is a slightly newer processor "Core 17 Processor"
GRAPHIC PROCESSING
Another Type of Process - Graphic Processing - to do with games card
Graphic cards are used..when you have eg virtual games... they open you up to many process..
Ram card needs to hold a lot of something
the more ram the more buffs
CPU - RUNING dvd
Ram
Refresh Rate - how often it refreshes - 60 Hertz A Second
Ram that comes on your motherboard are used by your CPU AND Ram therefore you get very
cheaper to buy graphics card in Motherboard
1000 - kiloHertZ
1000000 - gIga
SOFTWARE PROCESSING
eg.Spreadsheets, and Data Basis (Excel)
eg of processing, When using pics and manipulating it - Graphic Process eg. Photoshop,
eg video EDITING software - Movie maker - processing video, manipulating it
Eg, sound files - ordasity - manipulate sounds
Process advance - verbal writing - u speak n the computer write it - process where your intructructions are interpreted and
-NEEDS EDITING!
