Numerous bugs reported in Intel Prescott Pentium 4

jmke · 25th June 2004, 01:11

A DAY AFTER Intel released five LGA 775 chips, the firm reported a list of bugs in its Pentium 4 Prescott produced at 90 nanometres.
The report, dated 22nd of June 2004, show some interesting examples of erratanotbugs. For example, R9 is described as "System bus interrupt messages without data which receive a hard failure response may hang the processor".

So far no workaround is available for this bug.

Tough they make fast junk. (and I'm an AMD fan, so that says enough). Theyre CPU's do cost a lot, they are hot, make weird noises, but are fast. They've been the king for a year or 2, now AMD does the same like Intel. Expensive, highly priced, fast CPU's. So, they are in some kind the same.
