CPU

Processors are the heart of every computer and absolutely nothing would happen without them. A processor ensures the operating system of your PC, your games, and the conversion of media such as videos or images runs smoothly. ECOM Trading has the right CPU for your requirements.

Boosting the speed

The demands on a computer are constantly increasing and a PC needs to manage a lot of tasks in everyday use. New releases of operating systems or games require ever more computer power from the PC. The CPU determines the speed of your computer. The CPU, which is short for Central Processing Unit, processes information and controls the processing sequences with the help of algorithms. Previously, the clock speed of the processor was increased to increase the performance of PCs. These days, multiple processing cores operating in parallel are integrated into the processor. At ECOM Trading, we stock not only dual-core and quad-core processors but also processors with 6 or 8 processing cores. This enables the data processing performance to be increased at a lower clock frequency. For intensive image, video or audio processing, it is also possible, of course, to consider a CPU with 12 or even 16 cores, which will definitely help you call it a day earlier.

What processor suits your requirements?

The leading processor manufacturers are AMD and Intel. Both companies are based in Silicon Valley in California and are continuously working on improving the performance of their processors. Both manufacturers have different types of CPUs that are oriented towards your specific requirements. Do you use your PC to surf the Internet everyday, to use a word processor, or to create Excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint presentations? A simple processor is sufficient for this. To work effectively with image processing or graphics programs, it is recommended to select the Core i3 or Core i5 series from Intel or the AMD A10 or FX series. Professionals working in the area of video editing or sound editing as well as gamers need the highest possible computing power and therefore a high-performance processor. The Intel Core i7 or i9 models offer the optimal solutions for this. When purchasing a processor, you need to consider its compatibility with the existing motherboard. For the models from Intel, the available sockets include LGA1151, LGA2066, LGA1200 or LGA1700 as well as some now unimportant ones. For AMD, the most popular sockets are TR4, AM4 and TRX4. Older AMD sockets such as FM2+, FM2, AM1 or even AM3+ are not particularly interesting these days because they are totally obsolete and are mostly no longer manufactured.
