Vador2003 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2005 i think that the p5 will be intels 64 bit processor thats non server based Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odomike 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2005 Well, I know that the pentium CPUs are very good one and I dont want there to be an end to it. For me, I think that the Pentium CPUs are better than their Celeron, AMD and the rest of them counterparts.Intel only needs to make some nice upgrades and if there is going to be a P5.....well, that will be real nice.LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT...

alperuzi 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2005 I think they really need to sit down, and redesign some of the parts of the CPU like AMD did with the original athlon. As a result their FPU unit is much better than the intel at the moment. Intel hasn't done ANYTHING groundbreaking since the introduction of the original Pentium and maybe moving the cache into the cpu with P3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canute24 0 Report post Posted February 22, 2005 The is a little surprise for at least a few of you:Intel P5 was released in 1993 (2 million transistors)Intel P6 was released in 1996 (3.2 million transistors)Doesn't anyone follow the server market??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
