While it has some P4-like extensions, the P-M core is P6 not NetBurst. This is trivially deducible from various Intel documents, including the P-M spec update, the IA32 Volume3 manual, and the Code Optim manual. Also, CPUID reports family 6 not 15. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
