The processor is one of the most important parts of a computer.
It behaves like the "brain" of the computer, sorting out information.
Every key stoke, click or command is processed by the CPU (Computer
Processing Unit) and sorted, sending resources to different components
in order to fulfill your instruction. When selecting a desktop computer
the better the processor, the better the performance
Here are the two main factors to consider when buying a new processor
1. Number of cores
Since the mid 2000's, Computer processors now contain multiple processing cores. The definition of a multicore CPU is a processor with two or more independent cores that read and execute program instructions. To use an example, a standard single core processor is like a single lane road and a multiple core processor is like a motorway, allowing information to be processed faster without any congestion (or information waiting to be processed). The more cores your processor has, the faster your computer. At the moment, there are many processor out there which have 2, 4 or 6 cores such as the Intel I-Core and the AMD Phenom ranges.
