not as old as your moms boyfriend!
There is no such thing as an "Intel Premium" processor, and the Intel Pentium is 16 years old.
The Pentium 166mhz is a old socket 7 a very early Pentium prossessor,The Pentium 4 is modern form factor,much faster and more prossessor cach than the old chips.
In this day and age, no. The Intel Pentium 4 534 @ 3.06GHz (Prescott core) is several years old, easily outperformed by AMD chips of it's era, and has massive overheating problems.
well... to really say they can't handle all of it but some of it they might. this is how it would be on an intel pentium G620 processor it would let you play on it for a maximum of 20mins then it would start lagging then in a total of 40 mins the games screen would go white and it would say check graphics card or renew it
Core 2 Duo is FASTER. Pentium M is based on OLD technology and run on a SINGLE PROCESSING CORE whereas the CORE 2 DUO has 2 PROCESSING CORES. It has higher CLOCK SPEED, FSB, CACHE. Simple!
Depends on it's processor speed, graphics card, and processor type as well.
They are the exact same technology, so one is not actually "better" than the other. Intel Pentium Dual-Cores use the same architecture as the Intel Core 2 Duo, just with a smaller L2 cache size. This makes the Dual-Core slightly slower in intensive applications than a Core 2 Duo at the same clock speed. A Pentium Dual-Core will still outperform a Core 2 Duo of a lower clock rate. Pentium D's are older Core 2's renamed to promote newer CPU's.
No. Pentium 3 and Pentium 4 stand too apart from each other. For upgrading any processor on the same motherboard, they need to be in same socket type and the external interfaces should be compatible. P3 is a very old single core chip and is a lot different from latest dual core processors, so this upgrade is not possible.
It should be fine. Before someone says its based on old Pentium technology, it isn't. The new Intel Pentium Dual Core processors are based on the Core 2 Duo core architecture (Merom-2M). However it doesnt share the same amount of cache as the Core 2 Duo laptop versions have. Although I have one for my new laptop which I use for basic work each day. I have a proper desktop PC which I use to play games and such. But expect the same technology and enhancements you see on the Core 2 Duo to be on the Pentium Dual-Core.
Intel's old processors .... But if u see in current scenario Then Intel ATOM
The processors from the Pentium family are extremely old. They were performing great for their time, but nowadays the new multi core CPUs such as Core2Duo are much faster. This is because of the new architecture of the CPU and the second, third, fourth core.
Advantages of the Intel Pentium 4 include more bandwidth, better graphics, and better streaming media. Disadvantages include the high cost, frequent overheating, and slower overall performance.
