UNFINISHED Intel vs. AMD Cody Smith English 11 Now day’s people are using computers on a daily basis either for work‚ personal use‚ gaming‚ science‚ video editing or even big research projects. Computers were formed because people thought it would be easier to accomplish a task quicker. But for this to be possible there was one part on a computer that acted like a brain and made all tasks possible called a “PROCESSOR”. The Processor is also known as the “Central Processing Unit” or the “CPU”
