YES.

In fact, Intel has many chipsets that are specially designed to support the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor supporting Hyper-Threading Technology¹ .

A chipset is the heart of the motherboard, pumping data between the processor, memory and I/O peripherals. Simply put, chipsets that support Hyper-Threading Technology give PCs a turbo-charge, delivering the power users and PCs need to multi-task and increase productivity.

Intel chipset designs have been optimized to support Hyper-Threading Technology, which brings additional intelligence to systems so that multiple tasks received from the processor can be managed and prioritized more effectively. The combination of an Intel® Pentium® 4 processor supporting Hyper-Threading Technology¹ , an Intel chipset that supports Hyper-Threading Technology, an operating system that includes optimizations for HT Technology, and a BIOS that supports HT Technology and has it enabled delivers unmatched system performance and responsiveness.

PCs based on the Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor with HT Technology² run more efficiently. This gives today's multi-tasking user the ability to listen to music, watch movies, play games, capture streaming video off the Internet, and more - with performance headroom for the future.

Intel desktop chipsets that are currently optimized to support Hyper-Threading Technology include:
