The Intel® Pentium® processor Extreme Edition is Intel's first Desktop dual-core product supporting Hyper-Threading Technology†. The Pentium processor Extreme Edition uses Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA4) package technology, and plugs into a 775-land LGA socket, referred to as the LGA775 socket. The Pentium processor Extreme Edition utilizes the Intel NetBurst® microarchitecture and maintains the tradition of compatibility with IA-32 software. The Pentium processor Extreme Edition functions as two physical processors in one package. This allows a duplication of execution resources to provide increased system responsiveness in multitasking environments, and headroom for next generation multithreaded applications and new usages.
