The Intel Pentium MMX Processor
|
|
In October 1996 Intel released the 4th Pentium generation as the 'Pentium with MMX Technology' (usually just called Pentium MMX); it was based on the standard Pentium core, the 0.35 µm process of 3rd generation Pentiums was also used for this series, but it had a new set of 57 "MMX" (MultiMedia eXtensions) instructions to improve working on multimedia tasks, such as encoding and decoding media. However, software must be specially optimized to make use of MMX, and the increased speed the Pentium MMX showed at its apparition was mainly due to the fact that the internal cache had been doubled in size to 32 KB. |
