CPU Sockets and Their Role

Arithmetic & Logic Unit (ALU) = Execution of instructions Control Unit (CU) = Coordinates and controls all the operations Registers (Cache) = Temporary storage for instructions Heat spreader = Allows for better heat dissipation

CPU socket = Connects a CPU’s processor to the PC’s motherboard CPU = Fetches program instructions from RAM, interprets and processes it Transistors = Microscopic components mounted on a CPU Intel Corporation = An American multinational corporation popular for manufacturing CPUs
