Pentium 4 is a family of Intel processors with one core based on the NetBurst architecture, but some types support Hyper-Threading technology that exposes an additional, "virtual" core to the OS.

Core 2 Quad is another kind of Intel processors with four cores, based on the Intel Core architecture.

What is main difference between Pentium 4 and Pentium 5 processor?

There is no Pentium 5 processor. The mainstream (non-budget) Pentium line ends with the Pentium D, which is essentially a dual-core Pentium 4. The Core Solo, Core Duo, Core 2 Duo, and Core 2 Quad all have a very different architecture from the Pentium 4.


What is the difference between pentium 4 and core 2 quad?

The latest of the Pentium 4 processors were hyperthreaded single core CPUs, while the Core 2 is newer and faster, with more features, and the quads have 4 true cores and does not use hyperthreading. A personal rule of thumb is to consider hyperthreading as an extra half a core. So 4 CPUs on one chip/die (Core 2 quad) is more appealing then 1.5 CPUs (Pentium 4).


What is the difference between quad core and dual core?

What is the difference between a core 2 duo processor and a core 2 quad processor?

The quad core processor has four cores. It is essentially two of the Core 2 Duo processors as the Core 2 Duo only has two. The quad core will be faster and as a result more expensive.
