the brain of the computer, because it processes infomation and carries out commands,
since it tends to get hot it’s covered by a piece of metal, called a heat sink which draws heat

access memory, this is the short term memory that the computer uses whenever it’s
performing calculations. However, you cannot store your files there, because the ram is
cleared when you shut off ther compute.
