New York Laptop / PC / MAC Repair

Archive for the ‘CPU (Processor)’ Category

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the “brains” of the Laptop/MAC/PC.  The CPU of a Laptop/MAC/PC carries out all the functions of a computer program.  The CPU works in tandem with RAM in order to properly run  programs.

The specifications of the CPU has to be compatible with the motherboard and RAM, otherwise, the Laptop/MAC/PC system won’t work.  This can be an issue for users trying to upgrade their Laptop/MAC/PC or if the user is replacing broken parts.  At times, the cost of replacing the CPU isn’t worth it because current technology offers dramatic increases in performance speed and buying a new device is the better investment. If the differences between processors is one generation (for example: Intel 3 vs Intel 5) and users can not afford upgrading their computer/laptop there are other options in maximizing the performance speed.

By adding more memory, the Laptop/MAC/PC can improve in performance due to having more memory performing multiple calculations at one time.   Another common method is overclocking.  Skilled Laptop/MAC/PC users can manually increase the speed of the CPU.  However by doing so, there is a risk of shortening the lifespan of the CPU.
