    Re: Memory Upgrade Dell 4550 Tower

    The Banias core isn't a renamed Tualatin, it shares the P6 microarchitecture but it's heavily improved: new prediction branch, SSE2 instructions, segmented cache which can be powered off, a real SpeedStep: all things the Mobile P3 doesn't have.
    The Mobile P4 couldn't live for long either: early Prescott based samples draw and heated too much for a notebook chassis, no further improvement was expected from the Northwood core and a low consumption version for the then promising subnotebook market was unfeaseable, leaving the path to the Transmeta Crusoe and Via C3. IMHO Pentium-M was necessary.

      Junk Parts is getting his big disability chech from the Gov. soon. After taxes it will still be about $21,000 for the first three years. I'm buying my wife the loaded top dog that Dell has to offer for a Gammer with the purchased downgrade to XP they offer. Worst case I'll take Vista, and then reprogram on my own. For me me, I'll snatch a referbed Dell.

      There is a fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.

        I didn't say it was a renamed Tualatin.
        I said
        P -> P2 -> P3 ---> PM
        Does not follow a naming sequence.

        >> it shares the P6 microarchitecture <<
        Yes, it's 'roots' trace back to Tualatin, not P4.
        That was the point of what I said earlier.
        - The P3 family tree did not die out with Tualatin.

          Well, P4 and Mobile P4 already existed and Intel didn't want to name it Pentium 5 for a good reason. Anyway most people don't realize the name is Pentium M: for them is a "Centrino" processor

              Those are the same modules just single stick vs kit part numbers.
              That said: I'm not sure what the question is but this might help.

                Not that I'd want to be in the position to get a disability check, but two of those checks would pay off my house :o
