This is called a "heat sink", essentially, a metal plate makes indirect <span>(its separated by thermal paste)</span> contact with the heat spreader of a cpu (central processing unit). The concept is that the heat sink is made of highly conductive materials thus conducting heat away from the CPU, quite often you'll find a fan attached to further disparate heat away from the heat-sink. These days you'll alternative cooling methods, the most common alternative is to use watercooling (another topic). GPU (graphic processing units) also have heatsinks.

Why does temperature decrease with higher altitude?
Lelu [443]
It's B.

The cost of a given amount of computing power has _____.
lana [24]

Answer:

decreased drastically over the last five decades

Explanation:

I would say it is that answer because a few decades ago we needed huuuge computers that filled rooms to compute simple tasks. Now we have cellphones, which are basically computers that can fit into the palm of our hands. Our phones can do more than what those huge computers of the past did and they're easier to produce. So cost must have drastically decreased.
