Talk:Pentium Dual-Core

???

There is PC on sales at Interdiscount here in Switzerland with a "Intel Pentium Dualcore 915, 2.8 GHz" I think this should be added to the article. http://www.interdiscount.ch/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10001&storeId=10001&productId=108653&langId=3

It's a typo in the ad. It's an Intel Pentium D 915 / 2.8 Ghz "Presler". —RP88 11:50, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Model

Pentium Dual Core is based on Core Duo, not Core 2 Duo, it don't have EM64T and the CPUID is 06ECh (model 0Eh, Yonah) http://download.intel.com/design/mobile/SPECUPDT/31651501.pdf

Not true, this is part of the Core 2 Duo family and has a model number SLA3H http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_dual-core/specs.htm

There have been two sets of chips Intel has called Intel Pentium Dual-Core - mobile processors apparently based on the original Intel Core processors and desktop processors based on the Core 2 processors. The one with the SLA3H identifier was one of the desktop processors. Guy Harris 17:44, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

I merged this article section to Intel Core.

I think that this article is unnecessary. It is quite short, and can be merged with Intel Core article. Anyway, I made section for Pentium Dual-Core in Intel Core Article. Christisoursavior 03:25, 11 April 2007 (UTC)Christisoursavior

• Well, then, list this in AfD. vLaDsINgEr 02:16, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

It would appear the above no longer applies. 205.157.110.11 20:49, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Dangeous Reference!

Would somebody remove the 9th reference(I don't know how)? It's a malware site! Wlijiu (talk) 16:56, 15 October 2009 (UTC)

According to who? It would help if you were more specific, but I take it you are referring to the link to ripping.org. — Aluvus t/c 01:42, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

New Models

I added the link to socket 1156 in the right sidebar. I'm not up to writing a blurb, yet, but please note that there is a Pentium released as a Clarkdale.

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

Non consensus to move. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:03, 4 March 2010 (UTC) Pentium Dual-Core → Pentium

• These processors are no longer called Pentium Dual-Core. Intel markets them as Pentium. —BrownsRock10 (talk) 14:07, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
• Page Pentium is a disambig of 8 choices. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 17:05, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
• The page Pentium should be Pentium (disambig) 76.189.181.66 (talk) 19:38, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
• Strong Oppose Pentium should be about the P5 architecture chip if anything, ie. the ORIGINAL Pentium from Intel. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 09:50, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
  • The Pentium 1 CPU article is the Intel P5 article. So this article could be something like Pentium (2009-Present CPU). Just another thought -BrownsRock10 (talk) 02:15, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
• Comment this move seems like WP:RECENTISM bias. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 09:51, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
• The Yonah, Allendale and Merom-2M processors were only sold as Pentium Dual-Core, so I'd strongly recommend leaving them on this page without a move. Penryn and Clarkdale apparently were only sold as Pentium (not Pentium Dual-Core), so it would absolutely make sense to move the description to a different page, possibly Pentium, and Wolfdale should perhaps be described on both, mentioning Intel's change of policy. Moreover, the Pentium page IMHO needs to be an article summarizing the history of the name, just like we have for Intel Core. One way to get there is to extend Pentium (brand) in that way. Arndbergmann (talk) 11:48, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
  • Update: Pentium (brand) now has an extended history section that can be used for an overview article. Arndbergmann (talk) 17:40, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
    • Update: I like the way the whole Pentium (brand) article is set up. BrownsRock10 (talk) 02:08, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
• Comment: I concur with 70.29.210.242. In cases like these, we have to remember to balance current usage with historical usage. Letdorf (talk) 13:34, 22 February 2010 (UTC).
• Oppose. Many Pentium processors before the dual-core ones. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zuiver jo (talk • contribs) 23:17, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

New Mobile Model/s

Was trying to throw together a page for the new mobile socket and I keep finding new info, conflicting info, and just basically a never ending slurry of slow downs! I don't even LIKE Intel and I'm doing this! :\ There is a new "P6000" that is based on Nehalem architecture, as well as Celeron P4500 and P4505s, all dual cores and with on-chip graphics. P4505 doesn't use the 988 pin socket that I'm working up the page for, and I don't know if there are more Pentium models or not since I didn't even plan to find one to begin with! Intel needs to learn to not diversify so much, only confuses the end user on what exactly you are buying!

Anywho here is where I came across the Pentium listing (4th from bottom as of this posting): http://ark.intel.com/MySearch.aspx?s=t&Sockets=988&CoreCountMin=1&CoreCountMax=8 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Formula350 (talk • contribs) 03:12, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

I've added references to P6000 and U5400 on the Pentium page. Note that the Pentium Dual-Core page only covers CPUs under that name, not the current Core and Nehalem based Pentium processors. The lists of Pentium and Celeron CPUs already covered these correctly. Arndbergmann (talk) 12:56, 26 August 2010 (UTC)xm v cmbvxcvb zh hjsdvgvsvu svugsfkg suvfgdu fksdgfv

Merge to Pentium

I propose merging this into Pentium since List of Intel Pentium Dual-Core microprocessors has now been merged into List of Intel Pentium microprocessors (see decision discussion at Talk:List of Intel Pentium Dual-Core microprocessors#Merge to Pentium). This merge would also be in line with Celeron and Celeron Dual-Core branding (notice there is no article for such). Note the current situation is also somewhat backwards from List of Intel Core M microprocessors and Intel Core#Core M (single brand article but multiple lists; however, there is a Core M disambiguation page). See also an earlier historic discussion at #New Models about the same merge. 50.53.1.33 (talk) 19:34, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

• Strongly support --Cornea Scratcher (talk) 00:23, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
• Comment - The Pentium briefly mentions many different tpyes of Pentium, then links to 'sub' article. It may be better to improve summary of Dual-Core on the Pentium article and keep this for further details.Jonpatterns (talk) 10:48, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

Closing given that discussion is stale and with no consensus. Klbrain (talk) 19:54, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
