What is the high speed memory between the main memory and the CPU called?
A
Register Memory
B
Storage Memory
C
Cache Memory
D
Virtual Memory
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cache memory is an extremely fast memory type that acts as a buffer between RAM and the CPU. It holds frequently requested data and instructions so that they are immediately available to the CPU when needed. Cache memory is used to reduce the average time to access data from the Main memory.

Detailed explanation-2: -Explanation: It is called the Cache Memory. The cache memory is the high speed memory between the main memory and the CPU.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cache memory is a type of high-speed random access memory (RAM) which is built into the processor . Data can be transferred to and from cache memory more quickly than from RAM. As a result, cache memory is used to temporarily hold data and instructions that the processor is likely to reuse.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cache memory is sometimes called CPU (central processing unit) memory because it is typically integrated directly into the CPU chip or placed on a separate chip that has a separate bus interconnect with the CPU.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cache memory is a type of memory used to store data used frequently by the computer. This data is accessed frequently and stored in a location close to the processor. The cache memory helps improve the computer’s speed by containing the data and providing it to the processor when needed.
