[edit] Pentium III Mobile
Until the introduction of the Pentium 4 mobile series of chips, and then the Pentium M itself, the PIII-M was the most popular mobile chip out there, but not even a mention of it here. --Fxer 16:43, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] wattage in core listing
in listing of cores it would be nice to include the thermal wattage.
[edit] Merging
I disargee with the proposition of combining the article Coppermine with Pentium III. The Pentium III article should simply state each cores significance to the entire series, while further elaboration should be left to the article on that core in particular. Tom 03:06, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mounting Technology
It would be nice also to have mounting information. If you dig through the text you can find some wattage info.
[edit] Coppermines, Pentiums, and Clocking
First, it is interesting to note that the "600 MHz Pentium III" was made in virtually every sensible combination of package/FSB/cache/stepping. I count at least 25 different S-specs, and that excludes the Celerons.
Of Pentium III cores, Coppermine bridged the gap from 500MHz to >1GHz, and probably deserves the main emphasis? Each new stepping fixed some issues, quietly. All following needs to be verified: first stepping cA2 was not SMP capable; the cB0 had longer pipeline; cC0 reduced die size, upped core voltage, had less capacitors on pin side, and could SMP at 1GHz. Stepping cD0 ups the core Vcc again by .05, specifies higher thermal design.
There's an abundance of information regarding overclocking. Rarely is underclocking or undervolting explored. One Celeron 700//1.7v that I have tested seems to run stable at Vcore 1.3. Passive cooling... Resources with such data would be greatly appreciated.
Regarding wattage. Same good site http://users.erols.com/chare/elec.htm has compiled lists of CPU power requirements. For authoritative data, search at developer.intel.com try e.g. "24526408"
[edit] Intel Pentium III-S 1.53Ghz
Tualatin are also clocked 1.53Ghz [ 11.5x ] for HP computers:

[edit] Should i add a picture of a Katmai
Hey, i have a old Katmai PIII, so i was thinking since there is no good picture of it, i could take my own and put it here. But im not so good at this wikipedia thing, so could you help me out? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 85.81.44.83 (talk) 23:42, 14 April 2007 (UTC).
[edit] Pictures
These pictures are unclear and the captions are ambiguous. Somebody should work on this. HoCkEy PUCK 04:44, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
- Yup, and why is there a Katmai picture in the Coppermine subsection? Perhaps someone should produce a single picture of the Katmai with includes both the open and the closed view. --Klaws 10:31, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
