When Intel announced that for the 20th Anniversary of the Pentium processor they were releasing a special edition with two cores and no hyperthreading we were somewhat nonplussed. After all, dual cores are for "internet ready PC's" and not much use for an...
I really like the Pentium G3258, we like to congratulate Intel with the 20th Anniversary. The Pentium G3258 is a fun product to fool around with, just for fun alone. Overall I was impressed how well these little critters run on a full blown PC. The overc...
The Intel Pentium G3258 20th Anniversary Edition Processor was a very fun processor to use and we are extremely happy with the results of our testing. This processor won't out perform the mighty Intel Core i7-4770K or Core i7-4790K Devil's Canyon, but we ...

The Pentium G3258, at 3.2 GHz, is a fairly slow CPU. Two cores, 3 MB of shared L3 cache, no Hyper-Threading—those specifications are indeed Pentium-class. But it's the unlocked clock multiplier that makes Intel's 20 th anniversary Pentium something specia...
Intel has released its two bombs during the Computex 2014 show: the high-end Devils Canyon will replace the i7-4770K processor; on the other side of the performance pyramid the low end Pentium series get the company of an unlocked Anniversary model, the P...
Abstract: We still can't figure out whether this CPU is sheer marketing brilliance, or simply a happy coincidence in timing. Performance-hungry PC users should currently be peeved at Intel, with the 5th Gen Core CPU delayed from the original June release until the ...
The Pentium name has been around for a long time. While in the late part of its life, it represented value-end products in a rather big “fall from grace”, it was the yardstick and flagship for many many series of CPUs and remains a memorable name.The Pent...
