Pentium 5 and 6

[JET@WORK]

if this has been covered already... sorry but has anyone heard about the availablility of pentium V. According to this website... pentium V was here since january 2004. I am still using p3... how true was this...

I think trawling the web for inaccurate 2 year old articles (which were speculating on the future of an industry which doesnt know where it will be in 3 months time) is a bit sad.

But, lets for the sake of argument extrapolate on the codename

p4=willamette
lets assume the slated p5 was northwood
lets assume the slated p6 wouldve been prescott

see? Just cause they didnt change the names doesnt mean it doesnt exist?

Toms Hardware tend to have good information. Have a look in the CPU section. They are at:

Intel...

I think intel don't want to use the P5 term because they were sued when they claimed the p4 was faster than the p3.

Thus is they bring out a p5 then the p4 ee will kick ass and then they cannot claim p5 is faster the p4.

far to technical, so just buy an AMD
