The Big Processor Guide - Features
This table summarizes features supported by different cores. Y indicates support, N indicates lack of support, and a number in brackets indicates you should refer to the footnotes at the bottom of the page. This page is automatically generated from a CSV file using this PHP script.
Legend:
- SSE column lists highest supported version of SSE (SSE is noted as 1, SSE2 as 2, SSE3 as 3). SSSE3 (Supplemental SSE3, aka Merom New Instructions, added in Core Microarchitecture) is noted as S3.
- 3DN: 3D Now!
- PM: Power Management, using the following shorthand:
- SS: SpeedStep
- PN: PowerNow!
- CnQ: Cool'n'Quiet
- OPM: Optimized Power Management
- HT: Hyper-Threading
- VT: Virtualization Technology, using the following shorthand:
- V: Vanderpool
- P: Pacifica
- x64: x86-64, AMD64, EM64T, etc.
- NX: No eXecute bit, eXecute Disable bit
- Universally, Y for Yes, N for No or None
