Pentium 4 6XX Sequence and New EE P4s Launched
Mojo-Dog writes "Today Intel took the wraps off their new
Pentium 4 Processors with EM64T extensions for 64-bit computing. The
Pentium 4 6XX Sequence and Pentium 4 3.73GHz are based on Prescott 2M cores with
a full 2MB of on-chip L2 cache as well.
HotHardware.com has a full review with benchmarks posted of these new P4s,
many of which also offer Intel's SpeedStep technology for power savings and
improved thermals, which has been available in Pentium Mobile CPUs for some time
now."

When going from 16 to 32 bits, the performance more than doubled because virtually nothing was done in 16 bits even then. However, pretty much nothing requires more than 32 bits now, besides programs with large datasets. Since most things now do not require more than 32 bits (and likely never will), moving to 64 bits just means more cache misses and page faults, both of which reduce performance.
In other words, do not expect performance to improve for any 64-bit app aside from those that require multiple GB of memory.
dom
come on. If you look into it, these are 64bit extensions not a 64bit processor core. They're trying to doop the masses. They're emulating 64bit. It's a waste of money.
... and few instructions separate enough to make icc (intel C compiler) produce code which won't run on AMD64...
MOD DOWN - GOATSE.CX LINK!
Doesn't matter to me at the end of the day what processor Intel or AMD launch if it can't run osx that's a deal closer for me.
