icroprocessor Options

The Dell Inspiron 3000 series portable computer is avail-

able with a 200-, 233-, or 266-megahertz (MHz) Intel

Pentium

microprocessor or a 233- or 266-MHz Intel

Pentium II microprocessor.

All microprocessors used in the Inspiron 3000 series

incorporate MMX

™

technology. Current applications not

designed specifically for MMX technology should gain a

slight improvement in performance when run on a system

with a Pentium microprocessor with MMX technology.

Software written specifically to take advantage of MMX

technology (labeled “Designed for Intel MMX”) shows

even greater improvement in performance, depending on

the type of application. In addition, a Pentium micropro-

cessor with MMX technology provides twice the amount

of internal cache memory available with the standard

Pentium microprocessor.

ardware Features

Dell Inspiron 3000 series computers now offer the fol-

lowing enhanced features:

•

32 kilobytes (KB) of internal cache memory.

•

A minimum of 32 megabytes (MB) of synchronous

dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM).

The 32 MB consists of 16 MB of nonremovable

memory on the system board and a 16-MB

3.3-volt (V) memory module in one of the two

memory module sockets on the system board.

Memory on any Inspiron 3000 series computer can

be increased up to 144 MB by installing a combina-

tion of 16-, 32-, or 64-MB, 3.3-V memory modules

in the two memory module sockets on the system

board.

•

512 KB of static RAM (SRAM) level 2 (L2) cache

memory.

Cache memory enhances the speed of many micro-

processor operations by storing the most recently

accessed contents of system memory.

•

A 12.1-inch super video graphics array (SVGA)

active-matrix color display on the Inspiron

3200 D233ST and on the Inspiron 3000 M200ST

and M233ST; a 13.3-inch extended graphics array

(XGA) active-matrix color display on the

Inspiron 3000 M233XT and M266XT and on the

Inspiron 3200 D233XT and D266XT.
