         Pentium chips  marked “Extreme Edition” run at an 800MHz FSB, include 2MB of L3 Cache, and support Hyper Threading. Extreme Edition processors are designed for high-end gamers and power users.
⦁    FSB     Front-Side Bus, the speed of which measures how fast the motherboard can communicate with its RAM and its chipset. FSB speed is measured in megahertz (MHz).

⦁    GHz(Gigahertz)     The standard measurement of processor speed. 1GHz = 1,000 Megahertz (MHz). AMD’s processors do not use this rating , instead, they go by a numbering scheme that roughly corresponds with certain GHz speeds.

⦁    HT     Hyper Threading (sometimes abbreviated HTT, or Hyper Threading Technology). Technology released by Intel for its Pentium processors. Hyper Threading enables the processor to multitask between two software programs at the same time, providing a performance boost up to 25-30%.

⦁    L2 Cache     Level 2 Cache is a collection of chips on the processor that speeds up commonly-used functions. The more cache a processor has, the quicker it can perform certain functions.

⦁    L3 Cache     Level 3 Cache is an extra level of chip on the processor that speeds up commonly-used functions.
