Quote:Predicably, both companies dived head first into this new market, promising (and eventually delivering) dual-core desktop processors and chipsets. Intel split its dual-core offerings into two product lines; the high-end Pentium Extreme Edition clocked at 3.2GHz using the company's Hyperthreading technology, and the mainstream Pentium D 840, 830 and 820 processors clocked at 3.2GHz, 3.0GHz and 2.8GHz respectively without Hyperthreading.
As the Intel Pentium Extreme Edition is priced beyond the grasp of most consumers, PCSTATS has opted to forego that CPU in favour of the flagship Intel Pentium D 840 processor, clocked at a respectable 3.2GHz and retailing for about $740CDN ($650USD). I should also mention our thanks to DAIWA Distribution for helping to facilitate this review. This 90nm processor uses a pair of Prescott cores running at 16 x 200MHz to bring multi-processing to the desktop in a LGA775 pinless package.
