    Hi Welcome

    I don't think the full CPU details are needed for the A+ just what speed they are and wattage, I wouldnt take any notice of the rest of it.

    There does seem a lot of information to try and absorb in the course - simply don't!
    Remember the minimum and recommended requirements for each OS, and have an appreciation for what processor would be for what use.

    This is one of the areas I'm also having problems remembering, are you sure you don't need to memorise CPU stats? I've seen various qusetions on practice tests dealing with cache and sockets.

    Yes remembering sockets is a good idea, but you wont need to know if the chip is 65nm or 45nm.

    As mentioned above remembering which processor fits which socket is the most I learned for the exam. I can't even remember if I had a question on this, however if its in the objectives, take some time to learn them!
