Posted on 2005-02-22 16:08:14 by LSDsmurfOn February 21, the largest CPU giant Intel is expected to announce two new models of Pentium 4 processors. The first of them is the long-awaited 600 series of Pentium 4 processors (630, 640, 650, and 660) operating at frequencies from 3.0 to 3.6 GHz with 200 MHz system bus (800 MHz Quad Pumped Bus). They are based on the new revision of Prescott core supporting Extended Memory 64-bit Technology (EM64T, a counterpart of AMD x86-64) and Enhanced Intel SpeedStep.
The second model is represented by a single model so far – Pentium 4 Extreme Edition, 3.73 GHz CPU clock, designed for 266 MHz system bus (1066 MHz Quad Pumped Bus). Note that it's actually the first extreme processor on Prescott core, announced by the company. Both models are equipped with 2 MB L2 Data Cache. This article reviews key features of the new Prescott core revisions used in both processors compared to the previous Prescott and Nocona core revisions.
