INTEL CORE 2 DUO E8400 3.0 GHZ PROCESSOR

PRICE: 7050/- ($169)

INTRODUCTION

Intel’s first 45nm processor, the Core 2 Extreme QX9650, launched last November and it was shortly followed with the launch of the QX9770 – a 200MHz faster, 1600MHz FSB CPU that came at an even higher price point. It was nothing more than a show of power from Intel, following AMD’s lacklustre Phenom launch, and it represented no value to almost all consumers.

Thankfully, Intel doesn’t just make super expensive 45nm CPUs and for those who aren’t interested in a quad-core, the E8x00 series of dual-core processors are without doubt an interesting proposition. Sadly getting hold of them, especially the E8400 with its optimum Price-to-Performance ratio at 3.00GHz at around £130, is a bit of a task – even after three months the availability is a little short. Why? At IDF in Shanghai, Tim did a bit of digging and discovered this was more to do with 45nm fab capacity than it was with yield issue.

DESCRIPTION:

Maximum everything. Energy-efficient performance. Multimedia power.
Based on revolutionary Intel Core microarchitecture, the breakthrough Intel Core2 Duo processor family is designed to provide powerful energy-efficient performance so you can do more at once without slowing down.

With 45nm Intel Core2 Duo processors, you’ll experience revolutionary performance, unbelievable system responsiveness, and energy-efficiency second to none. And, you won’t have to slow down for virus scan, multiple compute intensive programs, or home video editing—these desktop processors include Intel® HD Boost and are up to 70 percent faster when processing high-definition memories with your HD video camera.¹
