Once you have reached maximum 4GHz CPU speed, what is the next option for additional speed?
  1. Add more RAM
  2. Buy a faster CPU
  3. Install a multicore processor
  4. Install a faster motherboard
Explanation
Answer: C - Installing a multicore processor is the next step in increasing CPU speed.

CPU speed is capped at 4GHz. The only way for manufacturers to increase CPU speed was to create multiple CPUs within one chip. Each processor is called a core, and you can now buy CPU chips with multiple cores to increase speed.
