Summary
About the Intel Pentium D 940 CPU
The Intel Pentium D 940 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2006 with a suggested retail price of $423. It is part of Intel's Pentium D lineup, which is based on the Presler microarchitecture. The D 940 is compatible with Intel Socket 775 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 65 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Pentium D 940 supports DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Pentium D 940 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 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Pentium D 940 features 2 total cores which can 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 3.2 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 Pentium D 940 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 4 505 CPU
The Intel Pentium 4 505 is an end-of-life 1-core (1-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q4 2004. It is part of Intel's Pentium 4 lineup, which is based on the Prescott microarchitecture. The 4 505 is compatible with Intel Socket 775 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 90 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
The Pentium 4 505 supports DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Pentium 4 505 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 4 505 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 2.7 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 Pentium 4 505 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
