Thread: Pentium IV Road into 2005

Here is a well appearance at what Pentium 4 central processing units the enthusiast will be trusting on during the rest of the year. We are confirm that this road map arrives as no surprise to many.

What is interesting is that 2 sources have modified us this morning of Intel setting their 1066MHz Front Side Bus into the combine in the form of a 3.46GHz Pentium 4 Extreme Version. It is still to be look what chip set will really support this central processing unit.



Our admired Northwood amount is in actuality actuality phased out with the accepted top-end of 3.4GHz. We do apprehend to see LGA775 Northwoods from 2.8GHz and up, so while the Northwood is on the way out, it would assume its activity if far from over and Intel is not counting on the Prescott to absolutely amuse the marketplace.

It will of course be concerning for the hardware enthusiasts and gamers to assure how the 2.8GHz Prescott overclocks later the process has had time to mature into 2005 and surely the 2.8GHz Prescott will then be instead inexpensive.

You will see the "7XX" and "5XX" archetypal numbers acclaimed in the appellation of our chart. The 7XX refers to a P4EE and the 5XX to a P4. You should not apprehend to see 64-bit able CPUs in the Intel affected till Windows64 is a reality.
