The Pentium Processor
The Pentium is a widely-used pc microprocessor from the Intel Corporation. First offered in 1993, the Pentium quickly replaced Intel's 486 microprocessor because of the microchip-of-choice in manufacturing a private computer. the first Pentium model includes two processors on one chip that contains 3.1 million transistors.
The Pentium Pro, released in 1995, it was designed for PC servers and workstations that needed to serve multiple users or needed the speed required for graphics-intensive applications. additionally, to the microprocessor, the Pentium Pro includes another microchip containing cache memory that, being closer to the processor than the computer's main memory (RAM), accelerates machine operation. The Pentium Pro contains 5.5 million transistors.
The Pentium II is just a Pentium Pro with Intel's MMX technology included. It comes in microprocessor clock speeds of 233 MHz (millions of cycles per second), 266 MHz, and 300 MHz. It's suitable for applications that include motion video and 3-D images. Among the Pentium II's features are a 512 KB (kilobyte) level-two (L1 and L2) cache and a 32 KB L1 and L2 cache, twice that of the Pentium Pro processor. The L2 cache can include error-correcting-code (ECC).

History :
The invention of the Pentium processor :
It was invented and developed by Indian-American engineer Vinod Dham. He is known as 'Father of the Pentium Chip' for his contribution to the development of Intel's Pentium microprocessor - He is a mentor, advisor and sits on the boards of companies, including startups funded through his India-based fund Indo-US Venture Partners, where he is the founding managing director. Vinod Dham's accomplishment as 'Pentium Engineer' and as an Indian-American technology pioneer

What was next ? :
As of 2017, Pentium processors have little quite their name in common with earlier Pentiums, which were Intel's flagship processor for over a decade until the introduction of the Intel Core line in 2006. They're based on both the architectures utilized in Atom and that of Core processors. Within the case of Atom architectures, Pentiums are the very best performance implementations of the architecture. Pentium processors with Core architectures before 2017 were distinguished from the faster, higher-end i-series processors by lower clock rates and disabling some features, like hyper-threading, virtualization, and sometimes L3 cache.

How to make Salt crystals
How to make Salt crystals Welcome back friends, this is the first post in the newly launched series "The Home Science 101". Today we're looking at how to make salt crystals at home with household materials. Crystallization Description Description Crystallization or crystallisation is the process by which a solid forms, where the atoms or molecules are highly organized into a structure known as a crystal. Some of the ways by which crystals form are precipitating from a solution, freezing, or more rarely deposition directly from a gas. Materials required : These are the materials that you would need to do this:- A Container A stick or any other object like that Some thread or rope Hot water And the Main ingredient, Salt St ep 1 : Pour the hot water into the container and dissolve salt in it. Step 2 : Tie the stick and the thread, on the other end tie a metallic piece, and submerge it in the contai

Takshashila University | World's finest and first Institute ! Takshashila University is the most famous and the world’s first university. Takshashila University was established 2700 years ago in Taxila in present-day Pakistan. The University offered over 60 in various fields. The student’s minimum age is stipulated at 16 to join it. Takshashila university lectures taught Vedas and Eighteen Arts, which included skills such as archery, hunting, and elephant lore and it has in addition law school, medical school, and school of military science to the students. The ancient Takshasila was declared a UNESCO world heritage site. Students: More than 10,000 used to students studied at Takshasila University. The campus accommodated students who came from as far as Greece, Arabia, and China. Courses: The campus offered different courses in various fields such as: Vedas Grammar Philosophy Ayurveda Agriculture Surgery Politics Archery Warfare Astronomy Commerce Futurolog
One of the best explanation of the Pentinum processor, great job!
ReplyDeleteI am seeing that the core count is less and the clock speed is high, can you tell what matter's the most? Cores or Clock speed?
ReplyDeleteStraight answer :
DeleteCores are a bit more to importance than the clock speed.
Explanation in simple terms :
Let's assume the cores as our mouths, the clock speed as our digestion speed and food as commands. If our digestion speed is faster (clock speed) but the amount of food goes less (commands) because of less mouths (cores) we will digest slower. if we have more no. of mouths (Cores) then more amount of food (commands) will go in therefore we will digests food faster.
No you are wrong actually the clock speed matters more, I actually did a real life experiment and the result was that my intel i5 2.3 GHz Dual core mac was performing better than my intel i5 1.3 GHz QUAD core mac. I tested on a controlled test on both and the more the clock speed the better.
DeleteExplanation - The clock speed it the WHOLE COLLECTIVE SPEED FOR THE WHOLE PROCESSOR and more the clock speed the better
Yes, you will get that type of result in that case , there is also a video on youtube in which an AMD FX CPU is been overclocked to about 8.1 Ghz, although it had a higher clock speed , it was still performing worse than a modern 3.6 Ghz CPU. So, actually it depends case to case.
DeleteBy the way thanks for your information !
(https://winnervps.com/index.php/knowledgebase/198/CPUs-Core-Count-vs-Clock-Speed-Which-Is Better.html#:~:text=A%20core%20is%20a%20single,clock%20speed%20of%203.0GHz.&text=In%20essence%2C%20cores%20are%20multitasking%20instruments.)
DeleteThis is a great comparison by Winnervps
based on this article having more cores has more advantages then having more clock speed
Actually it depends on your requirements and usage weather you prioritize Cores or Clockspeed
DeleteTrue
DeleteAlso the other components matter too because using the onboard graphics instead of a seperate graphics card or bad cooling for the cpu will also change the performance. Also a big benefit of more amount of cores is that you can give more cores to each virtual machine you might run for instance but when looking for a cpu for your gaming rig or computer you should look for the one which has both in good quantity because a quad core at 1 GHz will perform worse than a dual core at 4 Ghz in the same machine for instance.
DeleteCan learn many new words things ☺️
ReplyDeleteHi, just a quick note - the image you have put in the where does it stand now section does not include the intel core i9 and some other ones which would be a very good comparison
ReplyDeleteThe pentium processor is an entry level processor and the i9 is a high end processor so actually there just no comparison between them
Deleteso if we follow what u are saying Guddu then i5 is also a very good processor so why has he done comparison between pentium and i5 then ?
DeleteAlso I was just giving a suggestion to update the list as it stops at intel's i5
Delete" so if we follow what u are saying Guddu then i5 is also a very good processor so why has he done comparison between pentium and i5 then ? " -
DeleteI think you have misunderstood me Feplay, if you can see the graph from Wccftech it just doesn't compare petiums with the i5's, i had included into my post as it showed the position of the pentium with all other well-known processor which most of us are familiar with, so, therefore the ones who are not familiar with the pentium but are familiar with the others, can get a rough view of the performance of the pentium, I am Glad that you asked this question !
Thanks for your suggestion Feplay, just wanted to tell that if other processors are then included in the list, we will enter the mid-range section of processor but the pentium was developed for the entry-level so, again the comparison won't be fair.
