Core 2 Duo E7200 Processor BX80571E7200
The Intel® Core™2 Duo processor was developed to meet the insatiable demand
for increased performance from PC users running multiple intense software applications
simultaneously. In the office, PC usage has changed from data entry and word
processing to e-Commerce, online collaboration, and an ever-increasing need
for continual security and virus protection. In the home, interests have shifted
from low-bandwidth photos and Internet surfing to downloading and viewing high-definition
videos, as well as advanced photo and video editing.
Intel’s new 45nm manufacturing technology, with hafnium-infused Hi-k transistors,
enables even more processor performance by doubling the transistor density,
improving efficiency and speed relative to the previous generationm. With a larger cache size, this processor delivers better performance without using more energy.

Energy Efficiency
Built on the innovative Intel® Core™ microarchitecture, the Intel Core
2 Duo desktop processor delivers revolutionary dual-core performance and breakthrough
processor energy efficiency. With Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution, Intel®
Smart Memory Access, Intel® Advanced Smart Cache, and Intel® Digital
Media Boost, this new processor is designed to do more in less time. Additional
features, which support enhanced security, virtualization, and 64-bit computing,
make the Intel Core 2 Duo the most impressive processor developed for an increasingly
multimedia-centered, high-definition world.

Detailed Features
Features
Dual-Core Processing
Two independent processor cores in one physical package run at the same frequency,
and share up to 6 MB of L2 cache as well as up to a 1333 MHz1 Front Side Bus,
for truly parallel computing. Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution
Improves execution speed and efficiency, delivering more instructions per
clock cycle. Each core can complete up to four full instructions simultaneously.
Intel® Smart Memory Access
Optimizes the use of the data bandwidth from the memory subsystem to accelerate
out-of-order execution. A newly designed prediction mechanism reduces the
time in-flight instructions have to wait for data. New pre-fetch algorithms
move data from system memory into fast L2 cache in advance of execution. These
functions keep the pipeline full, improving instruction throughput and performance.
45nm versions further improve this feature, with more efficient methods of
loading and storing data in main memory.
Intel® Advanced Smart Cache
The shared L2 cache is dynamically allocated to each processor core based
on workload. This efficient, dual-core optimized implementation increases
the probability that each core can access data from fast L2 cache, significantly
reducing latency to frequently used data and improving performance.
Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost
Accelerates the execution of Streaming SIMD Extension (SSE) instructions to
significantly improve the performance on a broad range of applications, including
video, audio, image processing and multimedia, encryption, financial, engineering
and scientific applications. The 128-bit SSE instructions are now issued at
a throughput rate of one per clock cycle effectively doubling their speed
of execution on a per clock basis over previous generation processors. 45nm
versions include a new Super SHuffle Engine, which improves existing SSE instructions
while 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.

Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT)
Intel® VT allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms.
For businesses, Intel VT offers improved manageability, limiting downtime
and maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing activities into
separate partitions
Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT) Intel® TXT provides hardware-based mechanisms to help protect against
software-based attacks and help protect the confidentiality and integrity
of data stored or created on the system. It does this by enabling a trusted
environment where applications can run within their own space, protected from
all other software on the system.
Intel® 64 Architecture Enables the processor to access larger amounts of memory. With appropriate
64-bit supporting hardware and software, platforms based on an Intel processor
supporting Intel 64 architecture can allow the use of extended virtual and
physical memory.
Execute Disable Bit Provides enhanced virus protection when deployed with a supported operating
system. The Execute Disable Bit allows memory to be marked as executable or
non-executable, allowing the processor to raise an error to the operating
system if malicious code attempts to run in non-executable memory, thereby
preventing the code from infecting the system.

As many have already said this is a great CPU for the price, really for price point and performace it's a no brainer. The stock cooling fan sucks so get an aftermarket one, besides that this baby is cheery!

This Processor is AMAZING! I bought it awhile ago, so I had trouble finding a mobo that supported it. I've overclocked it to 3.6ghz, I've seen the same model go higher. I run it at 3.0ghz all the time with stock voltage and cheap heatsync, it rarely breaks the target temperature of 140 degrees (ideal). Also 45 nm is great. Rarely goes over 10% CPU usage (except spikes when your first starting a program).
