    What is the difference between these two Pentium Chips?

    I am going to buy a new chip tomorrow but i could not find any info about this on Intel page.

    Both are Intel Pentium 3.2 GB, but one is prescott and the other is no-prescott, so what is the technical difference between both chips?

    The prescott one is 100 dollars less than the no-prescott.

    PENTIUM IV INTEL 3.2G BOX 800 PRESCOTT

    and

    PENTIUM IV INTEL 3.2G BOX 800

    Any advices or info appreciated.

    Cheers.

                      should both be 478 pins.

                      prescott is slower than northwood at lower frequencies, but I think the 3.2ghz prescott should be good. It uses the 90microns instead of 130microns size, which means more transistors and more heat.

                                      according to those links, the prescott is a better version of the P4..

                                      what i don't get is that the prescott is U$S 100 cheaper than the P4

                                                      I think you meant 3.2 Ghz

                                                      regardless.. the Prescott is boasted to be faster.
                                                      Intel raised the L2 cache from 512KB to 1MB
                                                      the new chips include new instructions--called SSE3--that should improve the chips' performance on 3D rendering and complex mathematical calculations

                                                      and made it less expensive to produce.
                                                      ICQ 115433750
