CPU, what is a CPU?
CPUs, what is a CPU? A CPU can be thought of as the ‘brain’ of your PC, as it’s the component that undertakes all of the ‘thinking’. In simple terms, the CPU is electrical circuitry that executes instructions and commands that comprise computer programs and software.
The CPU sits in the motherboard inside a special socket made specifically for that CPU’s pin or pad configuration. CPUs have as much of an impact on gaming performance as GPUs do, as the CPU is the component that has to feed and call upon components when they’re needed to process information.
