This article mainly introduces the service life of cpu. It has certain reference value, and friends who need it can refer to it. I hope you will learn a lot after reading this article. Next, let the editor take you to learn about it.

The theoretical life of cpu is very long, decades may not be a problem, while the actual service life of CPU is generally 4-5 years, beyond its performance will not be able to meet the normal needs of users (software upgrade speed is fast, resulting in an increase in hardware resource requirements).

CPU belongs to the parts with a long life in the computer, and the service life can be divided into two situations: one is the theoretical service life of CPU, that is, the time that a CPU can not be used from factory to complete scrap; the other is the actual service life of CPU, that is to say, although a CPU has not been scrapped, its performance has been unable to meet the needs. So, let's take a look at how long CPU can be used and how to use and maintain CPU properly.

On the Service Life of CPU

Now that it is divided into two aspects, let's start with the issue of the duration of CPU scrapping. Intel's first microprocessor, the C4004, launched in 1971, is still in service for American space equipment.

The processor was first used in 1977 and has been in use for 42 years now. Thus it can be seen that the stability and life of CPU are long.

Let's talk about the actual use time of CPU. The elimination of CPU is not caused by its hardware damage, but is often caused by the failure of performance to meet the current needs. A mainstream CPU device, often after four or five years of use, the performance can not meet the normal needs of users (software upgrade speed is fast, resulting in an increase in hardware resource requirements).

The service life of the CPU can also be explained by the bathtub curve of the semiconductor. In the early and later use process, the failure rate and damage rate of CPU are high, when the stable operation will enter a stable period, there will be few failures and damage. The stable period of CPU is quite long, so it can be regarded as a long-life hardware device in the computer.

How to use and maintain CPU

CPU is generally encapsulated, and users rarely have direct contact with CPU. So how do you use and maintain CPU to make it work longer? There is only one potential invisible killer for CPU, and that is temperature! CPU are basically equipped with high temperature protection, as long as the temperature reaches a certain condition, it will stop working.

Even if there is a problem with your CPU fan, it will not cause much damage to the CPU.

However, with the improvement of hardware performance, many hardware enthusiasts like to extract the ultimate performance of CPU and take overclocking operation. If overclocking is not set properly, it is easy to cause CPU to burn out. Non-overclocking users can rest assured to use until the day you replace all the equipment in the chassis, CPU will firmly continue to work for you!

Thank you for reading this article carefully. I hope the editor can share the useful life of cpu. The content is helpful to everyone, at the same time, I hope you will support us, pay attention to the industry information channel, and find out if you encounter problems. Detailed solutions are waiting for you to learn!
