Starting with the Pentium® processor, the bootable version of the Intel® Processor Frequency ID Utility can be
used to identify Intel processors, and will report the following information:
- Intel processor name
- Processor Type
- Processor Family
- Processor Model
- Processor Stepping
- Processor Revision
- Cache size (Levels 1, 2 and 3)
- Package Type
- Intel® MMX™ Technology
- Streaming SIMD Extensions, Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 and Streaming SIMD Extensions 3
- NetBurst™ Microarchitecture
When the utility is run on a processor that does support the Frequency ID test such as an Intel® Pentium® III processor, it will report the following:
- Proper Intel processor brand identification
- Processor and system bus expected frequencies
- Processor and system bus reported frequencies
- Accompanying this information is a message informing the
user whether the processor is operating at its expected frequency
Running the utility on a Pentium® III processor based system:
When the utility is run on a processor that does not support the Frequency ID test such as an early Intel® Celeron® processor, it will report only the following:
- CPUID data (processor type, family, model, and stepping)
- Packaging type
- Level 1 and Level 2 cache sizes
- MMXTM technology support
- Streaming SIMD extensions support
