Talk:NetBurst

Recycling the name NetBurst for newer processors
I thought the NetBurst name will be reused for future processors. It may have the same name, but it would refer to an entirely different type of processor and architecture. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.128.34.31 (talk) 10:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

The article P7 claims that P7, not NetBurst is the name of the Pentium 4's microarchitecture. Which is correct? I have only seen NetBurst so far, never P7. Yogi de 18:58, 2 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I saw in some places that Pentium 4 being referenced as "P68" while P7 is Itanium, someone agree?

Also, the "Rapid Execution Engine" is valid for Willamate and Northwood only, in Prescott ALUs operate at core clock, and it can perform shofts in 1 clock.

Processor roadmaps
I've started a discussion on the processor roadmap graphics over at Talk:Nehalem (microarchitecture). Please take a look and make a comment if you have any thoughts. Thank you. -- Imperator3733 (talk) 15:06, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Itanium
Paragraph "Revisions" mentions Itanium in the context of x86-64, which is incorrect:

"... and later, the implementation of Intel 64, Intel's branding for their compatible implementation of the x86-64 64-bit version of the x86 microarchitecture (as with Hyper-Threading, all Prescott chips branded Pentium 4 HT have hardware to support this feature, but it was initially only enabled on the Itanium processors, then high-end Xeon processors, before being officially introduced in processors with the Pentium brand)."

Itanium is completly unrelated here and should be removed. -- 78.50.96.219 (talk) 09:57, 24 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Well spotted - I have now fixed this. Letdorf (talk) 12:39, 24 December 2009 (UTC).
