Key Features

Processor Type: Athlon
Clock speed: 2.9 GHz
Socket type: There are many slots and sockets for CPUs (central processing units), particulars of the slots corresponding to the processor types and their manufacturers. Sockets most recent, recognizable by their three-digit number, take their name from the number of pins, while the oldest are named in the order of their invention or of their generation and their names usually does that a single number.

Processor

Manufacturer: AMD
Processor type: The microprocessor market is dominated by two manufacturers: AMD and Intel. Although compatible with the same operating systems, the same software and the same devices, processors manufactured by two companies require different motherboards and are probably not compatible with the same memories. Today, there are also processors on the market called "mobile", that is to say, designed to equip computers and other computer devices. At the same frequency, a mobile processor consumes less power than a desktop processor. Its main advantage is to increase the life of batterie.Athlon
Clock speed: This isthe rate at which a microprocessor executes instructions. The clock speed is an important criterion for comparing the performance of multiple processors in the same famille.2.9 GHz
