Intel extends Hyper

Jim Rader's Web site www.rader.org

Intel extends Hyper-Threading Technology^† to a variety of desktop PCs, with the new Intel® Pentium® 4 processor, featuring an advanced 800 MHz system bus and speeds ranging from 2.40 to 3 GHz. Hyper-Threading Technology from Intel enables the processor to execute two threads (parts of a software program) in parallel - so your software can run more efficiently and you can multitask more effectively.

Based on Intel® NetBurst™ microarchitecture and built with Intel's 0.13-micron technology, the Pentium 4 processor delivers significant performance gains for use in home computing, business solutions and all your processing needs.

Available Speeds

800 MHz system bus: 3 GHz, 2.80C GHz, 2.60C GHz, 2.40C GHz

533 MHz system bus: 3.06 GHz, 2.80 GHz, 2.66 GHz, 2.53 GHz, 2.40B GHz, 2.26 GHz

400 MHz system bus: 2.60 GHz, 2.50 GHz, 2.40 GHz, 2.20 GHz, 2A GHz

Hyper-Threading Technology

Available in systems with the Intel Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology^†

Chipset

800 MHz system bus: Intel® 875P, 865G, and 865PE chipsets

533/400 MHz system bus: Intel® 865P, 850 chipset family, 850E, 845PE, 845GE, 845GV, 845E and 845G chipsets

400 MHz system bus: Intel® 845GL and 845 chipsets
