IntelA Corea2 Duo Processor Product Highlight
Combining Intel's highly efficient 45nm manufacturing technology and IntelA Corea microarchitecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor delivers robust performance for both home and business software applications. With two complete computing "brains" on one physical processor, this dual-core processor delivers more performance with greater energy efficiency than older single-core processors. For PC users, this means doing more simultaneously with less slowdown and hesitation. Intel Technology
45nm Hafnium-Based Architecture. Thanks to a naturally occurring element called Hafnium, Intel engineers were able to shrink the size of new Intel processors and pack more computing technology into less space. The result is improved performance with less energy wastage.
IntelA Wide Dynamic Execution. Enables the delivery of more instructions per clock cycle for shorter execution times and improved energy efficiencyaaccomplish more simultaneously and with greater efficiency.
IntelA Intelligent Power Capability. Turning off portions of the processor when they aren't being used improves overall energy efficiency and reduces heat production, resulting in a quieter, more energy efficient system.
IntelA Smart Memory Access. Increasing available data bandwidth means more multitasking with less slowdownarun more demanding applications simultaneously and accomplish more in less time.
IntelA Advanced Smart Cache. Placing data closer to the processing cores improves platform responsiveness and performance with a wide range of applications.
IntelA Advanced Digital Media Boost. Accelerates performance with a wide range of applications, including video, gaming, speech and image, photo processing, encryption, financial, engineering and scientific applications.
IntelA HD Boost. Available only on the latest 45nm Intel processors, this revolutionary technology takes IntelA Advanced Digital Media Boost and improves it even further, enabling significant gains on the latest SSE4 instruction set. SSE4-optimized applications, such as video editing and encoding in high-definition resolution will see additional performance improvements
Performance for Multitasking
With two powerful and highly efficient processing cores, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor frees you to run multiple software applications at the same time without compromising performance or responsiveness. Everything including email, downloading, online shopping, and video editing can be done simultaneously and with greater efficiency. No longer is it necessary to choose between work and play.
Energy Efficiency
When working or playing hard, you want to keep distractions to a minimum. Thanks to Intel's exclusive 45nm technology, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor runs very efficientlyaconsuming less energy and producing less heat then previous-generation processors. Since desktop PCs featuring the Intel Core 2 Duo processor run cooler, they require less cooling, meaning fewer fans and a quieter computing experience. And with energy-saving features that shut down portions of the processor when they are not in use, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor is easier on your energy bill and the environment.

Does it's job. December 1, 2008
What can I say, it's a processor rated at a certain speed...and works as described.
Could probably crank it to 4 GHz as others have done. But at this speed, I have no gripes. It shreds everything I throw at it.
Got it running at 30c idle with a Zalman. It may hit 36c every now and then but drops back to 30c like nothing.
Do your self a favor and get a quality aftermarket fan and some Artic Silver.
Fantastic CPU October 24, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This CPU has a great cost/performance ratio. While I do not overclock, it runs at 3.17 Ghz on an ASUS P5Q mother board with 4 gigs of CORSAIR DDR2 800 speed ram. While I did not have any problems loading Vista Home Premium, if your verson is not SP-1, then only have 2 gigs of ram onboard at the time of install and do not increase it to 4 gigs until SP-1 installs. Also, the P5Q series of mother boards is very new and while it does take advantage of all of the features of the Intel E8500 CPU, one of the first things you need to do is upgrade the BIOS to the lastest available from ASUS. With these cautions, you will have a blazing fast system that is in a moderate price range.
