No, no, much earlier than 2010. First 3GHz Pentium was 2002: https://www.anandtech.com/show/1031 . That’s only 8 years after the 100Mhz Pentium.


Huh, you're right, I must have been looking at the wrong line. Thanks!

My point on comparing CPUs remains, and is even more pronounced against a 2002 CPU!


The gap from a Pentium with MMX and a Pentium 4 with SSE2 is many more times bigger than the first i3 to the current i7.


Though people forget the 100mhz pentium was a 10W chip.
