Intel
Core 2 Duo E6850 Processor HH80557PJ0804MGS
Intel® Core™2 Duo processor is the new brand name for our next-generation energy-efficient
performance desktop and mobile processors. Formerly known by their codenames
Conroe and Merom, the Intel® Core™2 processors for desktop and mobile computers
are based on the Intel® Core™ microarchitecture, Intel's new industry-leading
foundation for all mobile, desktop and server platforms moving forward.
CES
2007 Best of Innovations Honoree
The world's best microprocessor, Intel Core 2 Duo microprocessor. Innovations
Design and Engineering Awards honor outstanding consumer electronics design
and engineering.

By offering a single brand
name for our mainstream desktop and laptop dual-core processors, Intel's branding
strategy makes it simple for consumers and businesses to choose a powerful and
energy efficient processor – and makes it easier for developers to "write once,
run everywhere."
"...and not only was the Intel system running at 2.66GHz - a slower
clock rate then the top Pentium 4 - it was outpacing an overclocked Athlon 64
FX-60. Wrap your brain around that idea for a bit" - Intel
Reveals Conroe Architecture: Lloyd Case, Extremetech March 8,2006

Intel® Core™2 Processor Family
When launched later this year, the Intel® Core™2 Duo processor will
provide enhanced performance and energy-efficiency in mobile applications while
bringing for the first time the benefits of energy-efficient performance to
mainstream desktop computing. It will be Intel's highest performing desktop
processor ever and the new first choice of gamers and multimedia professionals
worldwide.
As with the Intel® Pentium® processor brand, use of the
number "2" signals the arrival of the next generation of technology
to the Intel® Core™ processor line. In order to be consistent with
our current Intel Core processor naming, we are continuing to use "Duo"
to creatively and effectively indicate Intel® dual-core technology.

Detailed Features
Features
Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution
Dynamic execution is a combination of techniques (data flow analysis, speculative
execution, out of order execution, and super scalar) that Intel first implemented
in the P6 microarchitecture used in the Pentium® Pro processor, Pentium®
II processor and Pentium® III processors.
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability
Intel® Intelligent Power Capability is a set of capabilities designed
to reduce power consumption and design requirements. This feature manages
the runtime power consumption of all the processor's execution cores. The
result is excellent energy optimization enabling the Intel Core microarchitecture
to deliver more energy-efficient performance for desktop PCs, mobile PCs and
servers.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache
The Intel® Advanced Smart Cache is a multi-core optimized cache that significantly
reduces latency to frequently used data, thus improving performance and efficiency
by increasing the probability that each execution core of a dual-core processor
can access data from a higher-performance, more efficient cache subsystem.
Intel® Smart Memory Access
Intel® Smart Memory Access improves system performance by optimizing the
use of the available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem and hiding the
latency of memory accesses.
Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost
The Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost is a feature that significantly
improves performance when executing Streaming SIMD Extension (SSE/SSE2/SSE3)
instructions.

All I have to say is compare this $299 cpu to any of the QX's out right now that will run you $1100+ and look at the performance. This processor is awesome.

This is a great buy. This is the fastest Core 2 Duo stock outside of the Extremes and easily overclocks with the right MB. I am using an eVGA 680i SLI and have had this baby to 3.6 on air and stable. I have it back down to 3.3 for now to keep temps and voltages at a more reasonable level, but as soon as I have the time I would like to start creeping back up to around 3.6 and see if I can keep the volts low enough to keep temps under 50. This cpu installs easily. drops right into the 775 and works great with the nVidia 680i chipset. This is my first Intel since buying AMD in 1999. I think I will stay with Intel for awhile now.

I think this is the best Intel chip you can get for the money (today!). The dual processor architecture is well-supported now, and the option to go to a 64-bit OS is nice, but not really necessary for the casual user. I think the big deal here is that I believe this is the last stop before the price curve gets steep. Meaning, to go any higher in speed, cache size, or number of processors on board, you have to shell out a lot more money. So, I'm sticking with this till I kill it, or prices come down.

This CPU is FAST!! My 3.4 GHz P4 Prescott died on me and I built a new rig using this and a GeForce 8800 GTS 640 MB video card. I had no idea my old computer was that slow. I can run Shadowrun, Company of Heroes, Supreme Commander, and Enemy Territory: Quake Wars all on the highest graphics settings at 1680 x 1050 with smooth framerates. Load times are incredibly faster, on my old P4 Shadowrun would sit at the loading screen for two or three minutes before even hitting the main menu. On this Core 2, it only takes about ten seconds to load. $300 is also an amazing price for the best Core 2 Duo on the market.
