Cache Memory
• Cache memory is high-speed memory that holds the most recent data and instructions that have been loaded by the CPU.
• Cache is located directly on the CPU or between the CPU and RAM, making it faster than normal RAM.
• CPU-resident cache is called Level-1 (L1) cache. External cache is called Level-2 (L2) cache.
• The amount of cache memory has a tremendous impact on the computer's speed.
