A field service technician is replacing a server motherboard that supports CPUs with multithreading capabilities. The technician notices the motherboard has four processor sockets. If each socket supports a quad-core processor, how many logical processors does the system appear to have? 4 8 16 32

32 (4 CPUs x 4 Cores per CPU x 2 threads per core).

For maximum efficiency and performance, a highly tuned and specialized application needs to run on a system capable of handling exactly 16 threads at the same time from the operating system. Which two of the following will best meet the specified requirement? A motherboard with four dual-core processors A system board with two quad-core processors A system with a 64-bit operating system installed A system board with four quad-core processors A motherboard with two 8-core processors

A motherboard with four dual-core processors A system board with two quad-core processors

What is the most likely result of a correctly installed processor, but an incorrectly installed cooler? Powers on, stays on, but the system freezes and nothing else happens Boot process begins, but the system suddenly turns off after a short period You press the power button, but the system does not power on at all BIOS/UEFI setup does not recognize the processor correctly

Boot process begins, but the system suddenly turns off after a short period
