A CPU is a small but powerful computer chip that sits on top of your PC's motherboard. It is inserted into the CPU socket, pins facing down. A small lever keeps it in place. Even when running for a short period, CPUs generate a lot of heat. Because of this thermal activity, the CPU is typically connected to a heat sink with a fan mounted directly on top of it. Therefore, these two components are usually included when you buy a CPU. Your CPU is distinct from the GPU (graphics processing unit), responsible for rendering images and video on your display. There are integrated GPUs on the CPU and share the memory with it. There are also standalone GPUs (also known as dedicated GPUs) with their card and memory.

Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.
