Cache memory is a vital part of a PC's performance and efficiency. However, you can't directly control how much cache you'll have available, and are only able to clear it when it gets too full.

Now, CPU cache memory is not homogenous it exists in three (occasionally four) variants, namely L1, L2, and L3. The primary differences between these three variants will come down to speed ...
