Intel® Pentium® 4 processor family supporting Hyper-Threading Technology1 (HT Technology) delivers Intel's most advanced, most powerful processors for desktop PCs and entry-level workstations, which are based on the Intel NetBurst® microarchitecture. The Pentium 4 processor is designed to deliver performance across applications and usages where end-users can truly appreciate and experience the performance. These applications include Internet audio and streaming video, image processing, video content creation, speech, 3D, CAD, games, multimedia, and multitasking user environments. The Intel® Pentium® 4 processor Extreme Edition supporting HT Technology features 2 MB of L3 cache and offers high levels of performance targeted specifically for high-end gamers and computing power users.
The Intel® Pentium® 4 processor family includes models with a 512‑KB on‑die L2 cache built on a 0.13 µm process and an Extreme Edition that adds a 2‑MB L3 cache and Hyper‑Threading Technology. Both variants use a 478‑pin FC‑PGA package and support system bus frequencies of 400 MHz, 533 MHz, or 800 MHz.
The datasheet provides detailed electrical, mechanical, and thermal specifications, pin assignments, voltage identification, and design guidelines for board designers and system integrators. It also lists supported frequencies ranging from 2 GHz to 3.40 GHz and outlines power‑management features such as AutoHALT, Stop‑Grant, and Sleep states.
