Staples has a great selection of computer central processing units (CPUs) from top brands like Intel and AMD. So whether you're looking for a CPU processor for a new build or an upgrade, we've got what you need.
What is a CPU?
A CPU processor, or "central processing unit," is the brain of your computer. It handles all the instructions your computer receives and carries out the commands. A CPU comprises two parts: the control unit and the arithmetic (or logic) unit. The control unit tells the processor what to do, while the arithmetic/logic unit performs calculations. The units are made up of transistors, which are essentially tiny switches that turn on and off very quickly. A CPU typically has millions of transistors, and the more transistors a processor has, the faster it can carry out instructions.
Choosing the right computer processor for your needs
When it comes to shopping for a CPU, there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind. First, for what tasks do you plan on using your computer? Suppose you're primarily going to use it for general office work or web browsing. In that case, you won't need as powerful a processor as someone who plans on using their machine for video editing or gaming. Second, processor speed is important, but it's not the only thing to consider. Look for a CPU with a high clock speed and multiple cores for the best performance.
Types of processors
There are two main types of CPUs: desktop computer and laptop. Desktop processors are larger and more powerful, making them ideal for gaming and other intensive tasks. Laptop processors are smaller and use less power, making them a better choice for portable computers. If you're looking for a CPU for gaming, you'll want to find one with a high clock speed and multiple cores. A processor with a higher clock speed will be able to carry out instructions faster, while one with multiple cores will be able to operate more instructions at once. Both factors are essential for gamers, as they need their CPU to handle the game's demands.
