1st Logo (1972-Early 1982)	2nd Logo (1982-1993)	3rd Logo (October 1993-June 1995)	4th Logo (2003-December 31, 2005)

1st Logo (1972-Early 1982)

Visuals: On a light yellow background, the then-current corporate Intel logo (simply the lowercase word "intel" with the "e" lower than the other letters) is seen on the top left corner and "Presents" is seen on the botton right corner in a script font.

Technique: A still 2D graphic.

Audio: The opening theme, which is actually an excerpt of "Yesterday's Gone" by Chad and Jeremy.

Availability: It was only seen on The MCS-4 Story, a promo for said microprocessor.

2nd Logo (1982-1993)

Visuals: There is the same Intel logo from above in white on a sunset background.

Technique: Same as before.

Audio: The opening audio.

Availabiity: It was only seen on a promotional video from 1982, which can be found here.

3rd Logo (October 1993-June 1995)

Visuals: On a black background, a blue 3D rendition of the Intel logo from before slowly zooms in while rotating vertically to face the camera.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: "Count Down" by Larry Wolfe.

Availability: It was only used on promotional material for retailers back in October 1993 to June 1995.

4th Logo (2003-December 31, 2005)

Visuals: There are two versions of this logo. Both are made for a specific processor:

Pentium 4 HT (2003-2005): There is an orange diagonal line on a blue/white background, which appears to have a hole. The black word "Runs" zooms out quickly, followed by the others "great" and "on", as the diagonal line fades and two more diagonal lines appear which have the letters "H" and "T" on them. A white light engulfs the center of the screen. The Intel Pentium logo, without the Intel logo appears from the left and moves to the center. As it does so, a white rectangle with a silver border zooms in as the logo places and a modified version of the Intel Inside logo appears by light. The words "Runs great on", stacked into each other, zoom out and place at the left of the Pentium logo. The diagonal lines with H and T also zoom out and mark the Pentium logo, resulting into the final result.
Pentium Extreme Edition (2005): On a different blue/white gradient background, a blue line moves in white the word "Runs" zooms out. The screen fades into another take and see the same line moving around with the word "great", and then another take with the word "on", as the line encounters another moving line. The screen fades into another take, and see a white/black vertical rectangle. Both lines move closer to the rectangle and form an "X", which marks in the black side of the rectangle. The Intel Inside logo draws in (the letters appear by light) and the words "pentium" and the stacked "EXTREME EDITION" zoom out, slam and mark the black side of the logo. The finished logo zooms out and places into the same silver-bordered rectangle with the words "Runs great on" already there. The copyright would fade in below.

Variants:

The Pentium Extreme Edition variant also has German and French localizations.
A still version appears on The Movies.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: Three loud whooshes (longer on the Pentium Extreme Edition version), followed by a slam and another whoosh, while the 1999 version of the Intel "bong" jingle plays.

Availability: It can be found on TOCA Race Driver 3.
