No consensus to merge A quasi merge was performed in ~2010, but most of this was undone. In any case, no consensus for merge below. --KarlB (talk) 03:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)

I suggest we merge the Extended Page Table article with Page table article. --BwB (talk) 20:25, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Agreed and the EPT is basically AMD's Nested Page Tables that came out when the Phenoms first rolled out. Cncxbox (talk) 05:45, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

I believe that it has more to deal with virtualization, not with page tables. Maybe merge it with some large article about virtualization? Penartur (talk) 15:01, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

No way. You might as well ask to merge Oreo with snack food. The page table article is more appropriately about the computer science concept of page tables than about a particular vendor's details, even if that vendor is notable enough (it is) to deserve an article. 208.118.18.233 (talk) 02:30, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

May be merge with article about intel VT? `a5b (talk) 12:41, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

This feature is not specific to Intel CPUs; i believe AMD has it longer than Intel Penartur (talk) 15:01, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

I think x86 virtualization hardware would be an appropriately neutral term to cover this and related stuff, but that might better be a category than an article. Otherwise, no way. This isn't Intel at all and thus doesn't belong in an Intel-related article. 208.118.18.233 (talk) 02:30, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

I believe that we need some list of CPUs with EPT support in this article. I wrote something about Intel, but i don't know about EPT support in AMD CPUs. Someone, please write which AMD CPUs do support EPT, and which do not! Penartur (talk) 15:02, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

This article is basically a cut-and-paste from the EPT section on the Intel web site. Their terms of use does not seem to permit this usage, so I cry "copyright violation"! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.163.44.102 (talk) 11:34, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Listed reference does not back up the article

The listed reference is an Intel page that says "This is an anticipated feature for future releases sets." The reference is not affirmative enough to back up the language used by that section of the article. PatrickDunfordNZ (talk) 02:02, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
