intel - Is it true that Pentium III was faster than its successor ...
2020年5月23日 · When the first Pentium 4 model (Wilamette), was introduced in late 2000 as 1.3 and 1.4 MHz, the fastest Pentium III was a Coppermine with 1.100/1.133 GHz (100/133 MHz FSB). While it featured a higher MHz number (good for advertisement) its performance was significantly lower - at best some two-thirds of the Pentium III.
Linux for Pentium III 700mHz / 480 MB Ram
2020年4月19日 · It's adviced as being capable of running on a Pentium III It should run on most computers, ranging from 256MB old PIII systems with pre-configured swap to the latest powerful boxes. 256MB RAM is recommended minimum for antiX.
history - What's the relationship between early 90s Pentium ...
2017年7月26日 · Pentium Pro was offered to consumer space in the form of Pentium II, and later, Pentium III. The dead end was Pentium 4. Pentium Pro is the processor that effectively killed RISC (except as an internal implementation of CISC …
intel - Which Linux or BSD distributions do still support i386, i486 …
many Pentium motherboards, depending on the chipset and configuration, won't cache RAM past 64MB in L2 cache; running without L2 cache is so slow the systemd cannot complete boot process. Realistically, a minimal 32-bit system requirement for modern software is Pentium III with 512MB of RAM and a Radeon-based AGP card.
Windows 98 with 2GB of RAM - Retrocomputing Stack Exchange
I managed to get my 2GB RAM dual Pentium III vintage rig project to use 1100MB RAM. Built up the Windows 98SE software on VirtualBox first. Then I just transferred the virtual disk to a physical one with 7-zip and sys command to make it bootable on the vintage. Runs like new, AGP aperture is much more stable.
Scaling compute times to a Pentium III 700 MHz [closed]
2021年1月8日 · I would assume that "scaled to a 700 MHz Pentium III" is a very poetic way of expressing what they are actually doing (whatever that is), unless they have a cycle-exact Pentium III emulation executing these programs - which is very doubtful.
Are all Slot 1 motherboards compatible with Coppermine?
2020年6月16日 · I want to put together a Pentium III tower using a beautiful Coppermine SL3XL CPU I found with a Slot 1 form factor. However, I noticed that many slot 1 motherboards do not officially support Coppermine, or even Pentium III altogether.
Why was desktop CPU frequency so low in the late 1990s?
2023年4月22日 · @RonJohn Well, some experts at a high-profile processor company in the late 1990s seems to have though in a similar way than the OP, and created an x86 design to replace the Intel Pentium III that should run at way higher clocks by having very simple pipeline steps. The target was to hit 6GHz to 7GHz some years later.
Intel processor transistor type evolution - cpu
2021年2月25日 · Pentium Pro: 0.6µm BiCMOS, down to 0.35µm; Pentium MMX: 0.28µm CMOS (which Intel referred to as 0.35µm because the transistor density is the same as 0.35µm BiCMOS used in previous Pentiums); Pentium II: 0.35µm CMOS, then 0.25µm; Pentium III: 0.25µm CMOS, down to 0.18µm; Pentium 4: 0.18µm CMOS, down to 65nm; Core 2: 65nm CMOS, then 45nm.
Why were the PlayStation 2 CPU and GPU initially separate chips?
2020年2月1日 · A Pentium III (Coppermine) of that time had about 10M transistors and ~100 mm², so a die with more than 200 mm² was most definite at the upper end of what could be done with reasonable expectation of success. Doubling this might have been past what could have done at that time. Increasing absolute yield rate
