The processor (CPU) is the system’s core, defining overall performance. When choosing a processor, balance core count, clock speed and power consumption based on use. Entry-level CPUs handle everyday tasks, while multi-core professional and server processors support virtualisation, rendering and parallel computing. Compatibility with motherboard socket type and chipset is crucial for a successful build.
