Throttling

allows for reducing the operating frequency of the CPU during times of less demand or during battery operation

Hyperthreading

an intel technology which have multiple instructions operating on separate data in parallel.

Peltier cooling element or thermoelectric coolers (TECs)

facilitate the transfer of heat from one side of the element, made of one material, to the other side, made of a different material

Multicore

multiple chips within one processor which Each core effectively operates as its own independent processor, provided that the operating system and applications can support multicore technology

clock cycle

A single charge to the CLK wire is called a

clock wire

The bell on a real CPU is a special wire called the

clock speed

The maximum number of clock cycles that a CPU can handle in a given period of time is referred to as its

true

The system crystal determines the speed at which a CPU and the rest of the PC operate
