Processors in a computer are the main important thing which decides the performance of the whole system. Many people are unaware of the fact that processors determine the speed of a computer rather people think that the speed of the system depends on the RAM of the computer. Lately I was using this Pentium four processor with 2.6 GHz. Many of my friends advised me to increase the RAM and then I decided to upgrade the RAM from 512 MB to 1 GB. Then I bought another 512 MB RAM and put it in the slot. Even after that I experienced the system is slow. There one of my friends told me the fact that processor speed represented in GHz is the one which decides the performance of a system and not the RAM after a particular size of RAM. This means I have been using my RAM only up to 300MB, so if the system is still slow it means that the processor capacity is poor. Now that various improvements in processors have been made by many manufacturer like AMD, Intel, etc. There were dual core processors and even Quadra core processors have been invented. I am happy that I use a Quadra core processor now.
