The Pentium II line added the MMX instructions that were also present in the Pentium MMX.. It introduced out-of-order execution and an integrated second-level cache on dual-chip processor package.. With the 2006 introduction of the Intel Core brand as the company's new flagship line of processors, the Pentium series was to be discontinued.. The first model in this series is the Pentium G6950 The Clarkdale chip is also used in the Core i3-5xx and Core i5-6xx series and features a 32 nm process (as it is based on the Westmere microarchitecture), integrated memory controller and 45 nm graphics controller and a third-level cache..

The Penryn core is the successor to the Merom core and Intel's 45 nm version of their mobile series of Pentium microprocessors.. The Pentium D was the first multi-core Pentium, integrating two Pentium 4 chips in one package and was available as the enthusiast Pentium Extreme Edition.. 35 µm120–233 MHz32 KB60–66 MHzSocket 7January 1997[12]Tillamook0 25 µm166–300 MHz32 KB66 MHzSocket 7August 1997P6 microarchitecture based[edit]In parallel with the P5 microarchitecture, Intel developed the P6 microarchitecture and started marketing it as the Pentium Pro for the high-end market in 1995.. In their form as of November 2011, Pentium processors are considered entry-level products that Intel rates as 'two stars',[1] meaning that they are above the low-end Atom and Celeron series, but below the faster Core i3, i5, i7, i9, and workstation Xeon series.. The Pentium SU4000 series has 2 MB L2 cache but is otherwise basically identical to the other two lines.. This eventually replaced all NetBurst-based processors across the four brands Celeron, Pentium, Core, and Xeon.. Pentium sticker, around 1993As of 2017, Pentium processors have little more than their name in common with earlier Pentiums, which were Intel's flagship processor for over a decade until the introduction of the Intel Core line in 2006..

Initially, these were named Pentium 4, and the high-end versions have since been named simply Xeon.. The second P6 generation replaced the original P5 with the Pentium II and rebranded the high-end version as Pentium II Xeon.. cAll models feature: on-chip floating-point unit, Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST), Intel 64, XD bit (an NX bit implementation), Intel VT-x, Smart Cache.. In 2014, Intel released the Pentium 20th Anniversary Edition, to mark the 20th anniversary of the Pentium brand.. Versions of these processors for the laptop market were initially named Mobile Pentium II and Mobile Pentium III, later versions were named Pentium III-M.. Starting with the Pentium II, the Celeron brand was used for low-end versions of most Pentium processors with a reduced feature set such as a smaller cache or missing power management features.. Marketing firm Lexicon Branding was hired to coin a name for the new processor The suffix -ium was chosen as it could connote a fundamental ingredient of a computer, like a chemical element,[4] while the prefix pent- could refer to the fifth generation of x86.. In September 2009, Intel introduced the Pentium SU4000 series together with the Celeron SU2000 and Core 2 Duo SU7000 series, which are dual-core CULV processors based on Penryn-3M and using 800 MHz FSB.. The processors are unlocked and highly overclockable In 2017, Intel splits Pentium into two line-ups, Pentium Silver aiming for low-power devices and shares architecture with Atom and Celeron and Pentium Gold aiming for entry-level desktop and using existing architecture, such as Kaby Lake or Coffee LakePentium-branded processors[edit]Die of a Pentium processorP5 microarchitecture based[edit]The original Intel P5 or Pentium and Pentium MMX processors were the superscalar follow-on to the 80486 processor and were marketed from 1993 to 1999.. However, due to a demand for mid-range dual-core processors, the Pentium brand was repurposed to be Intel's mid-range processor series, between the Celeron and Core series, continuing with the Pentium Dual-Core line.. In 2017, Intel split Pentium into two line-ups Pentium Silver aiming for low-power devices and shares architecture with Atom and Celeron.. dAll models support: MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSSE3, SSE4 1, SSE4 2eHD Graphics (Sandy Bridge) contain 6 EUs and HD Graphics 2000, but does not support these technologies: Intel Quick Sync Video, InTru 3D, Clear Video HD, Wireless Display, 3D Video, or 3D graphics acceleration.. Some versions of these were available as Pentium OverDrive that would fit into older CPU sockets.. 6 µm75–120 MHz16 KB50–66 MHzSocket 5October 1994P54CS0 35 µm133–200 MHz16 KB60–66 MHzSocket 7June 1995P55C0..

[9][10][11]In 2009, the 'Dual-Core' suffix was dropped, and new x86 microprocessors started carrying the plain Pentium name again..

In the Pentium series, some features of Clarkdale are disabled, including AES-NI, hyper-threading (versus Core i3), and the graphics controller in the Pentium runs at 533 MHz, while in the Core i3 i3-5xx series they run at 733 MHz, and Dual Video Decode that enables Blu-ray picture-in picture hardware acceleration, and support for Deep Color and xvYCC.. As with Pentium III, there are both Mobile Pentium 4 and Pentium 4 M processors for the laptop market, with Pentium 4 M denoting the more power-efficient versions.. 35 µm166–200 MHz256–1024 KB60–66 MHzSocket 8Pentium II[edit]CoreProcessClock ratesL2 cacheFSBSocketRelease dateKlamath0.. 35 µm233–300 MHz512 KB66 MHzSlot 1May 1997Deschutes0 25 µm266–450 MHz512 KB66–100 MHzSlot 1January 1998Tonga0.. 5 WIn 2009, Intel changed the naming system for Pentium processors, renaming the Wolfdale-3M based processors to Pentium, without the Dual-Core name, and introduced new single- and dual-core processors based on Penryn under the Pentium name.. 25 µm233–300 MHz512 KB66 MHzMMC-2April 1998Dixon0 25 µm266–366 MHz256 KB66 MHzMMC-2January 1999Pentium III[edit]CoreProcessClock ratesL2 cacheFSBSocketRelease dateKatmai0.. The name Pentium is originally derived from the Greek word penta (πεντα), meaning 'five', a reference to the prior numeric naming convention of Intel's 80x86 processors (8086–80486), with the Latin ending -ium.. Intel released the first Penryn Core, the Pentium T4200, in December 2008 In June 2009, Intel released the first single-core processor to use the Pentium name, a Consumer Ultra-Low Voltage (CULV) Penryn core named Pentium SU2700..

It was followed by a third version named the Pentium III and Pentium III Xeon respectively.. However, as the firm wanted to prevent their competitors from branding their processors with similar names (as AMD had done with their Am486), Intel filed a trademark application on the name in the United States, but was denied because a series of numbers was considered to lack trademark distinctiveness.. In 2006, the name briefly disappeared from Intel's technology roadmaps,[5][6] only to re-emerge in 2007..

Pentium Gold aiming for entry-level desktop and using existing architecture, such as Kaby Lake or Coffee Lake.. Unlike Pentium D, it integrated both cores on one chip From this point, the Intel Core brand name was used for the mainstream Intel processors, and the Pentium brand became a low-end version between Celeron and Core.. 25 µm450–600 MHz512 KB100–133 MHzSlot 1February 1999Coppermine0 18 µm400–1.. The FSB frequency is increased from 667 MHz to 800 MHz, and the voltage is lowered.. Nehalem microarchitecture based[edit]The Nehalem microarchitecture was introduced in late 2008 as a successor to the Core microarchitecture, and in early 2010, a new Pentium G6950 processor based on the Clarkdale design was introduced based on the Westmere refresh of Nehalem, which were followed by the mobile P6xxx based on Arrandale a few months later.. 3Netburst microarchitecture based2 4Pentium M microarchitecture based2 5Core microarchitecture basedOverview[edit]During development, Intel generally identifies processors with codenames, such as Prescott, Willamette, Coppermine, Katmai, Klamath, or Deschutes..
