The CPU is one of the most important parts of your computer. It is handles instructions from programs and does the basic arithmetic, logic, and input/output processes and is considered 'the brain' of the computer. The two major CPU companies are AMD and Intel. Right now Intel seems to be two steps ahead of AMD with its new i-series and the i5 2500k has the best price/performance ratio on the market at the moment. Each month, tomshardware.com has an article for best CPUs for the money.
When handling the CPU, always wear an ESD bracelet. This bracelet will ground you so you don't fry your processor.
