3. INTRODUCTION
The processor (really a short form for microprocessor and also often called the CPU or central processing unit) is the central component of the PC. It is the brain that runs the show inside the PC. All work that you do on your computer is performed directly or indirectly by the processor. Obviously, it is one of the most important components of the PC

4. What is Processor?
The processor is considered the "brain" of a computer. Without it the computer will not be able to boot up windows. The more powerful the processor the faster it can "think".

5. TYPES OF PROCESSOR There are 3 types of Processors: AMD, Intel and
Via. there are single core, dual core, quad core processors. to be able to use a PC with functions

6. FUNCTIONS OF PROCESSOR
A control unit that links the incoming data, decodes it, and sends it to the execution unit
An execution unit (or processing unit) that accomplishes tasks assigned to it by the instruction unit
A bus management unit (or input-output unit) that manages the flow of incoming and outgoing information and that interfaces with system RAM

7. ROLE OF PROCESSOR
The processor plays a significant role in the following important aspects of your computer system:
Performance: The processor is probably the most important single determinant of system performance in the PC. The processor's capabilities dictate the maximum performance of a system. The other devices only allow the processor to reach its full potential.
Software Support: Newer, faster processors enable the use of the latest software. In addition, new processors such as the Pentium with MMX Technology, enable the use of specialized software not usable on earlier machines.

8. ROLE OF PROCESSOR
Reliability and Stability: The quality of the processor is one factor that determines how reliably your system will run.
Energy Consumption and Cooling: Originally processors consumed relatively little power compared to other system devices. Power consumption has an impact on everything from cooling method selection to overall system reliability.
Motherboard Support: The processor you decide to use in your system will be a major determining factor in what sort of chipset you must use, and hence what motherboard you buy.

9. Challenge Areas in Processor
Speed
Power
Workload Characterization
Nanoscale Computing

10. CONCLUSION The Processor is a Brain of Computer
It is the thing to Increase the Speed
It CHALLANGES the Human in Speed & Memory
“Throughout human history, we have been dependent on machines to survive. Fate, it seems, is not without a sense of irony.”
