Pentium 5
 

WTF i just read that pentium 5 will have about 10ghz processor

i bought pentium 4 2.6ghz about 4years ago ..
:Oh crap

things become older faster and faster it seems.

Imagine a quad core pentium 5. :upsidedow

link. i hope the computer case uses liquid nitorgen to keep cool.

Since when did Intel start naming their processors 'pentium' again?

that is fucked up ..
i mean u buy a computer few more years and u cant install the operation system because ur computer is too slow ..

well they say they will use nanotechnology in 5-10more years ..and the speed will be like 1000 time faster ..
and even more..
i also read about 3-4terabyte disk ...and that is only the start of nanocomputers..

Crazy! It's gonna be a double quad core duo !:1orglaugh

its fucking crazy i cant play most of 2007's games :((((((((((((((((((((
to hight minimums ..

pentium 5 will have about 10ghz processor? Is it true? damn, how much?

...and the G5 will break the 2Ghz barrier.

Wait, too soon? :Oh crap

i cant wait for nano technology in computers

the 18 month syclus!

10Ghz?

That's just hot!!

:)

I have no idea what about pentium 5

the pentium's 4 maximum ghz speed is 3.2
i mean i have not seen more then 3.2ghz ..
so pentium 5 must come out sometime...

Actually the first CORE processor was technically the pentium 5.

Pentium 4 was the netburst architecture and the core was a totally different architecture. the Core 2 instead of having a high clock speed has lower clock speeds but simply processes nearly everything at a much faster rate than the first Core could.

I don't see Intel ever using the Pentium name again.

Also Quad core 2.5Ghz chips actually add up to 10Ghz. a 2.4Ghz quad core chip will set you back $275 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115017 overclock that ever so slightly and 10Ghz is already here....

not unless I reveal my solution to the casmir effect they won't

10ghz. pffft

that's a good news! :thumbsup I think I'll get one. :)

yea, the new technology is going to be nuts

Intel VP & CTO Pat Gelsinger said a 15GHZ Pentium "5" will be here by 2010. The current P4 will top out at 10GHZ. 5GHZ PDAs will be here by 2010 too.

At the current rate increase of about 200MHZ per year, Macs will be probably hitting about 3-4GHZ, maybe 5GHZ by 2010, unless Apple ports Max OS to x86.

That article was dated in 2002. There's never going to be a pentium 5, they stopped giving them numbers.

Things have slowed down considerably in the last 3 years -- cpu speeds have been hovering in the 3.0ghz to 3.8ghz range. A wall has been hit. I don't think the Intel guy who said that in 2002 was factoring that into the equation.

Chips will get to 10ghz, but it might be further away. Always check the date of a web blurb, been guilty of not doing it myself.

What is considered quick this month will be outdated the next

The frontier has been multicore in the last couple years.

P4s topped out at 3.6 and ghz isn't really how they rate performance anymore. Back in the 80's when I was a teenager it was all about the RAM. Most friends had computers that topped out at 64 MB then one of the richer ones got a IBM that had 512 MB of RAM. That meant he had the better computer supposedly. A core 2 duo that runs at 2.2 ghz performs better than a 3.6 ghz P4 could.

If you count the cores, but most apps don't use all cores at the same time(unless its 3d or video rendering). However I do realize that ghz is different these days. If we're just talking single core, you can't compare the clock speeds of 3 years ago with today's numbers, so you're right in that respect.

ummm... just because a cpu has 2 or 4 cores doesnt make it 2 or 4 times as fast as a single core verison of the same cpu.

the increase in speed going from a single core to a dual core is actually only about 40%, not 100%.

and yes thats with all modern os's, from *nix, win32, win64, solaris, you name it.

alot of what transpires inside the cpu is still handled on a single core basis.

can you say.... tumor maker ;)

yeah, and Microshit will write an operating system for that chip that will bring it right to its knees in no time flat.
:1orglaugh

ok now i think i am ok ..
i have a computer P4 2.6ghz that i bought 4y a go
now they have only 3ghz for sale that what i can find ..
all i need is ram upgrade and video card upgrade and it will last for an other 4years ..

I never said it does.... the bulk of the applications you'll see nearly no gains in speed. You'll have pretty nice overall gains if you're a big multi tasker like me. I was just making a point that 10Ghz IS here, count the cores ;)

The big shift that is on the horizon is multi-core cpu's on the order of 18-64 (and more) processors.

But like has already been said, current software doesn't even come close to making use of SMP (symmetrical multi processing). I've got Vista 64bit Ultimate running on a dual-processor quad-core machine and I NEVER see more than 2 cores running at greater than 50%. And that is running Photoshop CS3, Premiere Pro CS3, or Autodesk Cleaner XL (individual or simultaneous).

The software companies have to recode and recompile all of their applications to take advantage of 64-bit, SMP, and virtualization in order to take real advantage of the hardware that is currently on the market.

With that post right there you show how clueless you are about computer hardware.

yeah L:) now i know
its 2 processors .. instaid of 1..
:Oh crap

Intel released a 3.8ghz P4 chip as well.. I'm pretty positive my E6600 benchmarks a lot higher than it =_=

so its about 8ghz ..from what i understand..
a computer guy told me that i can get a computer for about 400-500$ . a good one
