The Pentium D is a series of microprocessors that was introduced by Intel at the Spring 2005 Intel Developer Forum. A 9xx-series Pentium D package contains two Pentium 4 Cedar Mill dies, unlike other multicore processors (including the Pentium D 8xx-series) that place both cores on a single die.
The Pentium D was the first announced multicore CPU (along with its more expensive twin, the Pentium Extreme Edition) from any manufacturer intended for desktop computers. Intel underscored the significance of this introduction by predicting that by the end of 2006 over 70% of its shipping desktop CPUs would be multicore. Analysts have speculated that the clock rate race between Intel and AMD is largely over, with no more exponential gains in clock rate looking likely. Instead, as long as Moore's Law holds up, it is expected that the increasing numbers of transistors that chip-makers can incorporate into their CPUs will be used to increase CPU throughput in other ways, such as by adding cores as the Pentium D does.
With the release of the Intel Core mobile processors and Intel Core 2 desktop processors, the Pentium D is the final processor to carry the Pentium brand name that has been at the forefront of Intel's products since 1993.
