That's probably wrong. Look at it as "we know that _that_ CPU".

Ditto. Most people would actually say two 'that' words here, and the emphasis
goes on the second one.

'that' removed.

This is probably correct. The second 'that' or the 'the' is wrong because both
the second 'that' and the 'the' are trying to specify the strategy.
