What do you mean core to quad? Are you referring to the Core2Quad? I'm also not sure what you mean by Pentium version as pentium is just a name Intel uses, it's not the name of the processor architecture. Core2/Core2Quad is based on the core architecture, something much more powerful than the netburst architecture Pentium 4 used.

Shaking my crystal ball, I think he/she is asking about Pentium Dual Core.

Pentium Dual Core is a slightly trimmed down version of the Core 2 Duo. They are built on the same architecture as the quad but only have 2 physical CPUs.
