Editing NetBurst (section)

=== Branch prediction hints ===
The Intel NetBurst architecture allows [[branch prediction]] hints to be inserted into the code to tell whether the static prediction should be taken or not taken, while this feature was abandoned in later Intel processors. According to Intel, NetBurst's branch prediction algorithm is 33% better than the one in P6.<ref name=Fog_Microarchitecture>{{cite web | last = Fog | first = Agner | title = The microarchitecture of Intel, AMD and VIA CPUs | date = December 1, 2016  | url = http://www.agner.org/optimize/microarchitecture.pdf | pages = 36 | access-date = March 22, 2017}}</ref><ref name="urlwww.ece.uah.edu">{{cite web |url=http://www.ece.uah.edu/~milenka/docs/milenkovic_WDDD02.pdf |title=Demystifying Intel Branch Predictors |first1=Milena |last1=Milenkovic |first2=Aleksandar |last2=Milenkovic |first3=Jeffrey |last3=Kulick}}</ref>
