CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Practice Question

A multicore processor would provide the advertised improvement by offering multiple processing units, called cores, within a single processor package. This allows the computer to perform various tasks simultaneously, thereby improving handling capabilities for multi-threaded applications. Single-core and multithreading options do not provide multiple physical cores and thus are less efficient in parallel task handling. Increasing RAM may improve overall system performance but doesn't directly improve the machine's parallel processing capability like adding more cores would.
