Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What 2 ways have manufacturers improved CPU execution speeds?
A
Multiple Core
B
More RAM
C
Bigger motherboards
D
Threading
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -On a multiprocessor system, multiple threads can concurrently run on multiple CPUs. Therefore, multithreaded programs can run much faster than on a uniprocessor system. They can also be faster than a program using multiple processes, because threads require fewer resources and generate less overhead.

Detailed explanation-2: -CPU clocks can sometimes be sped up by the user. This process is known as overclocking. When the number of pulses per second is increased, more fetch-decode-execute cycles can be performed and more instructions can be processed in a given time.

Detailed explanation-3: -Hyper-threading works by allowing each core in your CPU to do two actions at the same time. In turn, you get better processor performance since it’s improving the CPU’s efficiency.
