    The main diffrence between AMD Athlon and AMD Duron was ?

    • A.

      Duron had bigger CACHE

    • B.

      Duron Haswide address bus

    • C.

      Athlon has bigger CACHE

    • D.

      Athlon has bigger address bus

    Correct Answer
    C. Athlon has bigger CACHE
    Explanation
    The main difference between AMD Athlon and AMD Duron is that Athlon has a larger cache. Cache is a small, high-speed memory that stores frequently accessed data for faster retrieval. A larger cache allows for better performance as it can hold more data closer to the processor, reducing the time needed to fetch data from the main memory. Therefore, Athlon's larger cache size gives it an advantage over Duron in terms of processing speed and efficiency.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    The AMD Duron has ?

    • A.

      128 kb L1 CACHE

    • B.

      128 Kb L2 CACHE

    • C.

      64 kb L1 CACHE

    • D.

      128 kb L2 CACHE

    Correct Answer
    A. 128 kb L1 CACHE
    Explanation
    The AMD Duron processor is equipped with 128 kb of L1 cache. L1 cache, also known as Level 1 cache, is the closest and fastest cache to the processor. It is used to store instructions and data that the processor frequently accesses, allowing for quicker retrieval and execution of tasks. In this case, the AMD Duron processor has 128 kb of L1 cache, which helps improve its overall performance and efficiency.
