CPU

Central Processing Unit - Your processors, for example, Pentium IV, AMD Athlon. It is your computer's brain, taking requests from applications and then processing, or executing, actions or operations. The faster your processor, the more operations it can execute per second. The more operations you have per second, the faster things happen in your applications. Often people refer to a computers tower as the "CPU" but as explained above, the CPU is simply one of many parts in that tower.
