When building quality systems using the boxed Pentium III processor, it is imperative that you carefully consider the thermal management of the system and verify the system design with thermal testing.
Intel recommends the use of ATX and microATX form factor boards and chassis for the boxed Pentium® III processor.
For boxed Pentium® III processors in the S.E.C.C.2 form factor, the testing point is at the center of the heatsink base on the top of the processor near to the processor marking area (see Figure 1).

 Review: Intel Pentium III CPU
The retail release of the Pentium III (originally codenamed "Katmai") is a few scant days away, and I finally managed to get my hands on a pre-release processor down here in backward little Australia.
The Pentium III is based on the same processor core as the Pentium II, which in turn is not tremendously different from the old Pentium Pro.
Intel then devoutly wished they hadn't proudly announced the ID number, as howls of rage rose from privacy and civil liberties activists, liberally spiced with observations that faking an ID number wouldn't exactly be the programming task of the century.

 Intel ATA Drivers Efficiency
With the Intel ATA drivers the disc worked in the UDMA100 mode; this is proved by the program-configurator from the set of drivers and by the HDTach program - a reading speed from a disc buffer was more than 80 MBytes/sec.
The Intel IOmeter tests uses patterns, that is why its results are of great interest because of the different achievements of the Winstone and Winbench.
The Intel ATA is not just a connecting link between the controller and the OS, the drivers also implement some optimization of the requests for recording and predicting reading.

Intel launched a new version of the desktop Pentium III processor was nearly a year ago, and things didn't go so well.
The Pentium III languished at gigahertz and lower clock speeds while the company concentrated on its new, high-clock-speed burner, the Pentium 4.
Intel has managed to push the Pentium III design past the 1.13GHz barrier by manufacturing the chip on its brand-new fabrication process.

Intel announced on January 20 that it was planning to include a unique Processor Serial Number (PSN) in every one of its new Pentium III chips.
Intel stated that it plans to start shipping the chips within a matter of weeks, so it was essential to begin a campaign as early as possible after assessing the risk based on Intel's own statements.

Intel, the Santa Clara's CPU giant, has provided us with a nice test system featuring its new top-notch high-end processor: the Pentium III 1Ghz B officially announced in march 2000, exactly two days after the AMD Athlon 1Ghz availability announcement.
The Pentium III 1Ghz B comes with a SLOT1 connector (that allows to include on die cache memory due to the large size of the CPU which is more big than a Socket 370 one) in a SECC2 cartridge!.
The Pentium III 1Ghz B is part of the Coppermine family so it's engraved in 0,18µ (According to our sources Intel plans to release first 0.13µ CPUs in early 2002).

 Intel sacks Super Bowl ads | CNET News.com
Less than a week before kickoff, Intel has pulled its ads from the Super Bowl XXXIII lineup, saying it prefers to wait to air the Pentium III commercials, even though the network says the company is still on the hook for air time.
Intel itself has dominated the commercial breaks in the past few years with its "bunny people" dancing to classic disco anthems or comic vignettes starring actor/comedian Steve Martin.
But this year, the company determined that there was too much of a time lag between the event and the launch of the Pentium III later in the quarter, a company spokesperson said.

 X-bit labs - Articles - Intel Pentium III 933 Review
When Intel found itself lagging behind its major competitor, they decided not to disgrace themselves and a couple of days later, on 8 March, they announced their gigahertz processor on the Coppermine core.
However, this was far not a voluntary move and Pentium III 1GHz didn't appear in retail while the intermediate processors working at 800-933MHz remained unannounced at all.
Of course, Intel Pentium III with an integrated L2 on-die cache working at the full processor frequency can easily leave AMD Athlon 900 and AMD Athlon 850 far behind, because their L2 cache is located outside the processor core and works at 1/3 or 2/5 the processor frequency correspondingly.

 3. Intel Pentium III
Floating point unit taken from Pentium PRO CPU: higher performance with floating point calculations have been the most powerful aspect of this CPU in comparison to competitors, both AMD K6 and Intel Pentium (together with an higher clock frequency) which led to use it with High-End.
It can seem that Pentium II and Pentium III are, except for the clock frequency, the same, but it isn’t true: in Pentium III 70 new instructions have been introduced, called SSE (Streaming SIMD Extensions), which speed up 3D, videoconferencing and multimedia programs.
One of the main features of Pentium III is a serial code which allows to identify the processor used; following there’s a screenshot of the utility which allows to display the serial code.

Intel(r)'s newest CPU, the Pentium(r) III, draws heavily on the semiconductor giant's recent past while at the same time promising throughput acceleration via an optimizable instruction set.
With no true hardware level improvements, the Pentium(r) III on the surface is a tough sell to PC performance aficionados, and that includes the staff at Sharky Extreme.

 1000 MHz processors
Moreover, two chipsets from VIA for Intel and AMD processors, which have similar architecture but differ in the mechanism of interaction of the north bridge with a processor, can define the relative performance of the competitors quite exactly.
Second, the main, is that Intel uses a revolutionary 256-bit bus with Advanced Transfer Cache Architecture between a processor and an external L2cache instead of 64-bit bus.
Intel processor is much simpler due to the smaller size of caches.

Intel will hurdle past another speed barrier Monday when it releases a 1.13-GHz Pentium III, but rival Advanced Micro Devices won't be far behind with a 1.1-GHz Athlon on Aug. 28.
Intel's new chip, which will sell for around $990 in volume quantities, is expected to be featured in computers from Dell Computer and IBM, among other manufacturers.
However, the company won't likely cut other Pentium III prices, as it shaved the wholesale prices on the rest of the line by 10 to 24 percent July 17.

 Tom's Hardware Guide Processors: Intel's Next Paper Release: The Pentium III at 1133 MHz - Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
I do agree that Intel is having its hardest time since IBM made the incomprehensible decision to equip their 'PC' with Intel's badly engineered 8088 processor instead of Motorola's far superior 68k solution many many years ago.
Different to Intel, AMD was actually well capable of shipping their Giga-Athlon and today they are happily selling their new Athlon, based on the 'Thunderbird' core at 1 GHz as well.
Intel however shipped out their samples in the last minute, which proves who of the two companies is really able to actually produce 'Beyond-Giga-Processors' right now.

 My-ESM - Rambus' hopes dealt another major blow by Intel
Until Intel's acknowledgement last week that it is both developing a PC133 SDRAM chipset and probing the issue of tying its next-generation processor to double-data-rate (DDR) SDRAM, Rambus proponents had expected the Pentium 4 to propel sales of Direct RDRAM.
But Intel has maintained its commitment to Rambus memory, and, according to sources, still plans to use the interface exclusively in the first high-end version of the Pentium 4 to be released in the fourth quarter.
Intel's language endorsing Direct Rambus for high-performance PCs has been carefully crafted, said Bob Merritt, an analyst at Semico Research Corp. in Redwood City, Calif. "That would appear to leave the door open for the far larger mainstream PC market," he said.
