The motherboard doesn't contain cache. The chips do, but the motherboard contain RAM modules. Like when you hear a PC has 512MB of memory. The cache (memory on the chip) follows lines called a bus to the RAM (memory on the motherboard).Answer: Level 3

additional cache
L2 cache. Today's processors all have some memory on the processor chip (called a die). Memory on the processor die is called Level 1 cache (L1 cache). Memory in the processor package, but not on the processor die, is called Level 2 cache (L2 cache). Some processors use a third cache farther from the processor core, but still in the processor package, which is called Level 3 cache (L3 cache).
Internal Cache
Browser Cache
The first Intel CPU to feature external cache was the Intel Pentium Pro. External cache is also referred to as L2 cache, while internal cache is called L1 cache.
delay to access the data in cache in context of processor's speed. Time to access the requested data in cache , at that time processor have to wait .. is called cache latency.
The data found in the cache is called cache data. It typically consists of recently accessed or frequently used instructions or data that are stored in a smaller and faster memory area for quicker access by the processor.
On-Package L2 cache (discrete L2 cache) is on a separate microchip within the processor housing, while Advanced Transfer Cache (ATC) is located directly on the same die as the processor core.
Cache memory
The miss penalty in cache is calculated by determining the time it takes to access data from the main memory when a cache miss occurs. This time includes the latency of fetching the data from the main memory and loading it into the cache. The miss penalty is the additional time required when data is not found in the cache and needs to be retrieved from the main memory.
