About the Intel Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz CPU

The Intel Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz is an end-of-life 1-core (2-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2003. It is part of Intel's Mobile Pentium 4 lineup, which is based on the Northwood microarchitecture. The Mobile 4 3.06 GHz is compatible with Intel Socket 478 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 130 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

The Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz supports DDR1, DDR2 memory. In terms of cache, the Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 8 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz is a single core CPU, but is able to process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 3.1 GHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Mobile Pentium 4 3.06 GHz does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

About the Intel Pentium M 1.70 GHz CPU

The Intel Pentium M 1.70 GHz is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2003. It is part of Intel's Pentium M lineup, which is based on the Banias microarchitecture. The M 1.70 GHz is compatible with Intel Socket 478 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 130 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

The Pentium M 1.70 GHz supports DDR1, DDR2 memory. In terms of cache, the Pentium M 1.70 GHz has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 16 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Pentium M 1.70 GHz is a single-core and single-threaded CPU, making it not capable of processing multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1700.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Pentium M 1.70 GHz does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
