1. Increasing the operating frequency of a CPU beyond its default specifications to achieve higher performance, often requiring improved cooling solutions.
2. A CPU architecture that includes multiple independent processing cores on a single chip.
3. A type of heatsink with extended metal fins that increase the surface area for better heat dissipation from a CPU or other hot components.
4. The amount of electrical power consumed by a CPU under normal operation.
5. The primary component of a computer that executes instructions and performs calculations.
6. The number of simultaneous execution paths a CPU can handle. A higher number of threads can improve multitasking performance.
7. A device that converts electrical power from a source to a format that can be used by a computer or electronic device.
8. A substance applied between a CPU and a heatsink to enhance thermal conductivity.
9. A device used to dissipate heat away from a component, such as a CPU, by increasing its surface area.
10. Connectors on a motherboard that provide power to various components, including the CPU, graphics card, and storage devices.
11. A method of cooling a CPU or other components using a liquid, typically circulating it through tubes and a radiator to dissipate heat more effectively.
12. The ability of GPUs to perform multiple computations simultaneously, greatly increasing their processing power and efficiency.
13. A technique used by CPUs to improve instruction throughput by overlapping the execution of multiple instructions.
14. The specific type of memory used by GPUs to store and retrieve data required for video processing and rendering.
15. A dedicated type of memory used by GPUs to store and access data related to graphics processing.
16. The number of independent processing units within a CPU.
17. The speed at which data is transferred between the CPU and other components.
18. A list of all the instructions that a CPU can execute.
