|
ECC and NON-ECC
|
ECC quickly fixes the data error detected by parity
|
|
|
Parity and non-parity
|
compares the data to see that the data sent is the same as the data received
|
|
|
SO-DIMM
|
type of RAM used for laptops
|
|
|
DIMM
|
There are 168 contacts sending 64 bits at a time. Press straight down to install.
|
|
|
SIMM
|
First universally accepted type of RAM. Install at 45 degree angle then snap upwards into place
|
|
|
RDRAM
|
optimizes the system for video streaming up to 800 mHZ
|
|
|
DDR
|
Allows a motherboard to send data twice as fast. It runs at lower voltages, and more cycles per second.
|
|
|
SDRAM
|
runs at the same speed as the motherboard bus
|
|
|
32 bit vs 64 bit
|
the more bits the greater the ability to send data faster in the CPU
|
|
|
SRAM
|
Holds its charge and does not waste time being refreshed
|
|
|
DRAM
|
The voltage must be refreshed. The capacitors are recharged every thousandth of a second.
|
|
|
clock multiplier
|
clockrate is multiplied by the CPU to obtain the internal clockrate
|
|
|
Throttling
|
scaling back the CPU to use less power.
|
|
|
Core Voltage
|
the voltage amount required for a CPU to run
|
|
|
Voltage Regulator Module
|
Allows the addition of another CPU at a different core voltage
|
|
|
CPU cache
|
small, fast, and expensive memory which is used by the CPU to store instructions data and most recently used commands
|
|
|
Overclocking
|
forces a computer component to run at a higher clockrate
|
|
|
Multiprocessing
|
uses two or more CPU'S within a single computer system
|
|
|
QUAD core
|
four independent processors combined in a single CPU
|
|
|
Dual core
|
combines two or more independent processors into a single CPU
|
|
|
Hyper-threading
|
simultaneously executes two streams of instructions at one time.
|
|
|
Front-side bus
|
the front side bus connects the CPU to the main memory on the motherboard
|
