Intel Pentium D 940 Processor HH80553PG0884M
The Intel Pentium D Processor 900 Sequence features a dual-core design with
two complete processor cores that each run at the same speed, in one physical
package, featuring Intel Virtualization Technology. Enabled platforms can run
multiple operating systems and/or applications in independent partitions or
environments for improved security and remote mangeability. The Intel dual-core
processor is an evolution of Hyper-Threading Technology. Both enable a multi-threaded
experience for applications written to take advantage of multiple threads, but
dual-core processing brings more resources and computing throughput to the PC.
Dual-core processing allows for true parallel computing capabilities on the
desktop PC platform.
The Pentium D delivers computing resources that expand the PC's capabilities
and provide platform-level advancements in the form of higher throughput and
simultaneous computing. Get the Pentium D processor & expereince outstanding
computing for the Desktop and Workstation.

THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING -
GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.
Detailed Features
Features
Intel
Virtualization Technology
Intel® Virtualization Technology enables one hardware platform to function
as multiple "virtual" platforms. For businesses, it offers improved manageability,
limiting downtime and maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing
activities into separate partitions. In the home, it allows creating unique
user environments for multiple family members looking to use the same platform
simultaneously.
Execute
Disable Bit
Can help to prevent some classes of viruses and worms that exploit buffer
overrun vulnerabilities thus helping to improve the overall security of
the system.
Intel®
Extended Memory 64 Technology
Processors with Intel EM64T allow platforms to access larger amounts of
memory and will support 64-bit extended operating systems.
Dual-Core
Provides two execution cores in one physical processor allowing the platform
to do more in less time while enjoying smooth interaction with your PC.

Great CPU. This is my attempt to get back into the Intel scene.... I'm a big AMD fan. So far, so good.

This works like a charm. Noticeably faster than my previous Pent4 Hyper 3.2ghz single processor. Great buy for an easy and cheap upgrade.

For the price, one of the best deals. I installed in a very small case, where the power supply is about one inch above the CPU cooling fan. CPU temperatures routinely reach 60+C and I have had no problems.
Heat Sinks - Many Shapes & Sizes!
A heat sink (or heatsink) is an object that absorbs and dissipates heat from
another object using thermal contact (either direct or radiant). Heat sinks
are used in a wide range of applications wherever efficient heat dissipation
is required; including for CPUs, Memory, Video Cards, and more.
Heat Sink Shapes Change!
Many products come with a Heat Sink, and some with a combination Heat Sink
and Fan. Keep in mind though, that manufacturers are constantly
improving the design of their cooling components, thus the shape and design
of the heat sink or heat sink & fan can change on any product at any time.
PLEASE NOTE:
Cooling Components Can Change At Any Time, And Do Not
Affect The Performance Or Specifications Of The Product.
How Do Heat Sinks Work?
Heat sinks function by transferring high temperature thermal energy (heat)
from one object (such as a CPU chip) to a second object (such as the Heat
Sink), which has a lower temperature, with a much greater heat capacity.
This rapid transfer of heat quickly balances the temperature of both
devices, lowering the temperature of the first. This is what makes a
heat sink a cooling device. Since room temperature is usually cooler than
the hot device, the Heat Sink helps cool the device, lowering its temp to
closer to room temperature.
The most common design of a heat sink is a metal device with many fins or
vanes. The high thermal conductivity of the metal combined with the large
surface area of the fins does the work to rapidly transfer heat to the
surrounding, cooler, air. This cools the heat sink and whatever it is in
contact with. Some Heat Sinks use the metal alone for cooling, some
use fluids (just like you car radiator) and a thermal interface material
(such as thermal gel) to ensure maximum heat transfer to the heat sink.
Adding a fan dramatically improves air flow, and improves the heat transfer
even more.
Remember The
Thermal Paste!
Remember that when you are adding a Heat Sink, you MUST USE
thermally conductive Gel or Paste, to form a good thermal contact between
the Heat Sink and the Device. Failing to use this will result in
reduced cooling, and possible failure and damage to the device!
