Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor

Description:
With the Wolfdale core Intel pours more power into a Core 2 Duo package. The 45nm process allowed Intel to reduce the power needed to 65W. Lower power means lower CPU heat, which translates to lower system heat and longer system life. They also packed more features into the chip. L2 cache has been bumped to 6MB and the Front Side Bus has been pushed to 1333MHz. You can now use DDR2 or the hot new DDR3 memory for extreme performance. The processor also boosted memory access and execution speed with the Wide Dynamic Execution and Smart Memory Access. These combine to let the processor compute more instructions with more data per clock cycle. You'd better watch out; your enemies will be shooting back faster now. Advanced Digital Media Boost has been enhanced with the addition of the SSE4 instruction set and Intel HD Boost. This will give your entertainment experience a boost with better audio and video processing. It will also help with speech recognition, engineering and scientific applications. Perhaps most important of all will be the boost to security with increased encryption power and speed. Series: Core 2 Duo L2 Cache: 6MB Manufacturing Tech: 45 nm 64 bit Support: Yes Hyper-Threading Support: No Cooling Device: Heatsink and Fan included FSB: 1333MHz Virtualization Technology Support: Yes
