Intel’s convention of naming its processor series is quite interesting. The first processor of the x86 series was the 8086 processor, then 80186 and then shortened to 286, 386, 486. After 486, Intel rather changed the series name to PENTIUM instead of 586. The march kept continuing with Pentium series like Pentium , Pentium 2 , Intel Pentium 3 and up to Pentium 4. The differences were quite clear. Then Intel introduced The Pentium D is simply two Pentium 4 Prescott cpus inefficiently paired together and ran as dual core.
The Core Duo (generic name for this type is Dual Core) is Intel’s first generation dual core processor based upon the Pentium M (a Pentium III-4 hybrid) made mostly for laptops (though a few motherboard manufacturers have released desktop boards supporting the Core Duo CPU), and is much more efficiently than Pentium D.
