I believe intel will still ship you a nice set of CPU documentation (http://www.intel.com/products/processor/manuals/index.htm) for free - follow the "order a printed copy" link and send them a mail, or use the PDFs.

Perhaps not the most readable hardware-related literature around, but very useful if you need it.

You may try these, but IMHO better read tech/hardware portals [1]:
http://www.amazon.com/Upgrading-Repairing-Servers-Scott-Mueller/dp/078972815X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234527970&sr=8-1
http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Hardware-Managing-Maintaining-Troubleshooting/dp/0619217626/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1234527981&sr=8-1

For CPUs, try Wikipedia sites like List_of_XXX_processors:
