What the Pentium 4 HT 571 is
The Intel Pentium 4 HT 571 is a 3.8 GHz single-core desktop processor from June 2005. It runs one NetBurst core at 3.8 GHz with Hyper-Threading, so 1 core gives 2 threads. Cache is 1 MB of L2 on a 90 nm process. Power is rated at 115 W on LGA 775.
The 571 served performance LGA 775 towers on an 800 MT/s bus with a 19x multiplier at about 637 dollars launch price. The cpu_list 115 W value matches the 3.8 GHz Prescott class such as the 570J. It exists because buyers wanted Hyper-Threading at 3.8 GHz with 1 MB of cache.
Socket and motherboard compatibility
The 571 drops into LGA 775 boards with DDR2 memory and a BIOS that lists Prescott 5xx parts, such as 915 boards. Boards need voltage regulator support for the 115 W envelope. The Socket vs chipset: what decides whether a CPU works guide covers pairing rules.
Memory, PCIe and cooling
Memory is DDR2 through the board chipset in two channels.
An 800 MT/s front side bus ties the CPU to the chipset. PCIe slots hang off the chipset.
Cooling is a 115 W rated LGA 775 heatsink on the 72 mm mount.
Upgrade paths
On LGA 775 the upgrade is the Pentium 4 HT 670 at 3.8 GHz with 2 MB of cache at 115 W, or the Intel Pentium 4 HT 561 at 3.6 GHz for a lower cost. Beyond LGA 775 a move to a newer platform needs a new board and memory.
