→Pentium M: CPU architecture FSB speed is listed with "MT/s" transfer speed units, the bus is in-fact a hot rodded P6 chip GPTL and it its clock rate is 400-533Mhz, this is can be expressed as 400MT/s as well, but this causes confusion with P4 and Mobile P4 and later CPUs like Core Solo / Duo and Core 2 Solo / Duo which use DDR FSB technology. This is significant because the P6 chip at the time didn't like non-parity clock rates with memory controllers |

Pentium was Intel's flagship processor line for over a decade until the introduction of the [[Intel Core]] line in 2006. Pentium-branded processors released from 2009 to 2023 were considered entry-level products that Intel rated as "two stars",<ref>{{cite web |title=Processor Names and Numbers |url=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/processor-numbers.html |website=Intel |language=en-US |access-date=March 26, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Intel Processors |url=https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/details/processors.html |website=Intel |language=en-US |access-date=March 26, 2022}}</ref> meaning that they were above the low-end [[Intel Atom|Atom]] and [[Celeron]] series, but below the faster [[Intel Core]] lineup and workstation/server [[Xeon]] series. These later Pentium processors have little more than their name in common with earlier Pentiums.
