Hyper-Threading technology info
Notebooks based on mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 processor supporting Hyper-Threading technology¹ offer near desktop performance and desktop like features such as large screens, full-size keyboards and multiple drives. These notebooks provide better responsiveness when using multiple demanding applications, and allow users to take advantage of multithreaded and processor-intensive multimedia applications such as video encoding, digital media and gaming. Everything you could do on the desktop - video, audio and 3D graphics - you can now do on your notebook.
Hyper-Threading Technology has arrived on the notebook and desktop. Look for portable notebook and desktop systems with the new Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor supporting HT Technology logo which your system vendor has verified utilize Hyper-Threading Technology.
Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software you use. See your PC manufacturer for details on specific system configurations and performance.
Hyper-Threading (HT) Technology requires a computer system with:
- · Either an Intel Pentium 4 processor or ®®Mobile Intel Pentium 4 processor supporting HT Technology
- · An Intel® chipset that supports HT Technology Desktop chipsets, Mobile chipsets
- · System BIOS supporting HT Technology and has it enabled
- · An operating system that includes optimizations for HT Technology
A PC based on the ®®Intel Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology† enables you to run multiple demanding applications at the same time—making your favorite activity more productive and fun! This groundbreaking technology from Intel enables the processor to execute two threads (a part of a program) in parallel—so your software can run more efficiently and you can multitask more effectively than ever before.
The Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology is available in a variety of frequencies—3.40 GHz, 3.40E†† GHz, 3.20E GHz, 3.20 GHz, 3E GHz, 3 GHz, 2.80E GHz, 2.80C GHz, 2.60C GHz, and 2.40 GHz—all delivering improved system performance in multi-tasking environments and allowing you to configure a system that best suits your requirements.
How do you determine the right Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology for your requirements? If you don't usually run more than one demanding application at the same time, any of the sub-3 GHz processors could be a great value for your current needs. On the other hand, if you want the freedom to keep several heavy-duty applications humming at once, or if your multi-tasking needs will increase in the near future, then you want the muscle of the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor 3.40 GHz with advanced 800 MHz system bus.
Remember, a large and continually expanding variety of applications benefit from Hyper-Threading Technology—improving processor performance and responsiveness while multi-tasking, giving you the power to do more tasks on your PC at once.
