Hi Guys,

 

Does anyone know how good this processor would be for running OSx86 I can't seem to find any information.

Description

 

On 90 nm Process in 775-land LGA Package and supporting Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technologyf

The Intel® Pentium®4 processor on 90 nm process in the 775-land package is a follow on to the Pentium 4 processor in the 478-pin package with enhancements to the Intel NetBurst® microarchitecture. The Pentium 4 processor on 90 nm process in the 775-land package uses Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA4) package technology, and plugs into the 775LGA socket. The Pentium 4 processor in the 775-land package, like its predecessor, the Pentium 4 processor in the 478-pin package, is based on the same Intel 32-bit microarchitecture and maintains the tradition of compatibility with IA-32 software.
