4 processors
The Intel Pentium 4 processor, Intel's most advanced, most powerful processor for
desktop PCs and entry-level workstations, is based on Intel NetBurst
TM
microarchitecture. The Pentium 4 processor is designed to deliver performance
across applications and usages where end-users can truly appreciate and experience
the performance. These applications include Internet audio and streaming video,
image processing, video content creation, speech, 3D, CAD, games, multimedia, and
multi-tasking user environments. The Pentium 4 processor delivers this world-class
performance for consumer enthusiasts and business professional desktop PC users
as well as for entry-level workstation users.
Intel adds support for Hyper-Threading Technology to the Pentium 4 processor
family. HT Technology allows a single, physical Pentium 4 processor to function as
two logical processor for next generation multi threaded application.

! Memory Controller Hub (MCH)
The MCH provides the interconnect between the AGP, DDR SDRAM and the
system logic. It integrates:
- Supports for single processor with a data transfer rate of 400/533/800MHz.
- Supports dual channel of 266/333/400 DDR SDRAM up to 4GB.
- 8X/4X 1.5V AGP interface (Only support 1.5V on AGP interface).
- Downstream hub link for access to the ICH5/R.
