Intel Pentium D

The Pentium D[2] brand refers to two series of desktop dual-core 64-bit x86-64 microprocessors with the NetBurst microarchitecture manufactured by Intel. Each CPU comprised two dies, each containing a single core, residing next to each other on a multi-chip module package. The brand's first processor, codenamed Smithfield, was released by Intel on May 25, 2005. Nine months later, Intel introduced its successor, codenamed Presler,[3] but without offering significant upgrades in design,[4] still resulting in relatively high power consumption.[5] By 2004, the NetBurst processors reached a clock speed barrier at 3.8 GHz due to a thermal (and power) limit exemplified by the Presler's 130 Watt thermal design power[5] (a higher TDP requires additional cooling that can be prohibitively noisy or expensive). The future belonged to more energy efficient and slower clocked dual-core CPUs on a single die instead of two.[6] The final shipment date of the dual die Presler chips was August 8, 2008,[7] which marked the end of the Pentium D brand and also the NetBurst microarchitecture.

Intel® Pentium® III Processors

The Pentium® III processor is ideal for high performance applied computing. It supports highend communications, transaction terminal, and industrial automation applications. While incorporating new features and improvements, the Pentium III processor remains software compatible with previous members of the Intel microprocessor family.

The Pentium III processor is validated with multiple chipsets for maximum flexibility and scalability. Combined with the Intel 840 chipset, the Pentium III processor provides high performance and bandwidth including dual processing and a second PCI bus. The 815, 815E, 810 and 440BX chipsets provide a scalable platform supporting a wide selection of Celeron® and Pentium III processors ranging from 66 to 133 MHz processor side bus speeds. The 440BX AGPset supports ECC for the highest data integrity and ISA for legacy I/O. The Intel 815, 815E and 810 chipsets utilize Intel Graphics Technology, an integrated graphics platform which provides more stability, higher quality graphics and a reduced OEM bill of materials cost.

The Intel Pentium 4 processor

In November 2000 Intel introduced the new and very powerful high-end chip Pentium 4, formerly known as codename "Willamette". It was (as expected) delayed.

The Pentium 4 is a completely new processor holding several new designs. Here is a highlight:

400 MHz Front Side Bus of 128 bit width

Execution Trace Cache

20 KB L1 cache and 256 KB L2

The ALU (Arithmetical Logic Unit) runs at twice the clock speed

A new socket for simple motherboard design

Clock frequencies from 1500 MHz

20 stages pipeline

SSE2 and 128 bit MMX

42 millions of transistors

A new 423 pins socket design

Dual Rambus memory channel with i850 chipset

Only single processor mode available.
