CPU is like the computer's brain. Without the CPU, the computer won't be able to operate or run any software. The CPU is also one of the most expensive parts of the computer. CPU stands for Central Processing Unit and it ranges anywhere from $50 to $1000+ depending on what kind you buy.
Today, the 2 major processor corporations going against each other are AMD and Intel. They are competing to build the top processor. Because the faster it goes the faster our technology will go and they will get the credit for helping us make new ideas for our computers.
The processor is usually the most important piece of the computer. It is this reason that you should make sure to buy a stronger processor over a weaker one, even if it means spending more money. The faster your processor runs, the fewer headaches you will have in the long run due to your system freezing or crashing.
You should make sure to buy a Motherboard that is compatible with your processor. When looking for a motherboard and a processor, the motherboard's box will have a list of processors that it is compatible with. Keep in mind that an AMD processor will not work in an Intel motherboard and visa versa.
