These days Intel refreshes their dual-core Core 2 Duo processor lineup.
The new CPUs manufactured with 45nm process boast a lot of advantages
compared to their predecessors. We would like to offer you our
extensive write-up about them...
Conclusion
Well, everything seems pretty clear. Summing up everything we have just
said, we can state that new dual-core Core 2 Duo E8500, E8400 and E8200
processors on 45nm cores are great from all stand points. They are
faster than their predecessors working at the same clock speeds.
Besides, their working frequencies are initially higher than those of
previous Core 2 Duo CPUs. And taking into account that Intel is going
to sell the new solutions for the price of Core 2 Duo E6850, E6750 and
E6550, we can all get "free" performance improvement of 10-15% on new
Intel dual-core CPUs.
Moreover, Core 2 Duo's transition to new manufacturing technology
provides additional bonuses to the users. First, they will support of
the promising SSE4.1 instructions that will show their best in the
future. Second, Wolfdale CPUs are extremely economical. Third, they
overclock brilliantly and hence will become overclockers' choice.
In other words, the second reincarnation of dual-core processors on
Core micro-architecture turned out a definite success. The only
upsetting thing about it is that the sales of these processors will
definitely shake AMD's positions in the market even more, because they
cannot offer anything of the same performance level at the time. All
dual-core processors from AMD are slower than the new Core 2 Duo E8000
series, which automatically ousts them from the $150+ price segment,
where Intel's dual-core solutions will now become the only player.
