How many transistors in a computer chip?
How many transistors in a computer chip?

Have you ever wondered how many transistors are in a computer chip? And why does it matter? Transistors are the tiny switches that make up the logic circuits of a computer chip. They can be turned on or off individually, allowing them to store and process binary information. The more transistors a chip has, the more complex functions it can perform, the faster it can run, and the more energy-efficient it can be.
