Thread: Intel Core 2 Duo E7200

The E8000 and E7000 series of Intel processors come to replace the E6000 and E4000, respectively. In the comparison table below, put face to face to see the differences between the lowest models in each series processor.

As can be seen in the comparison table there are many changes, where all these changes translate into better performance, lower voltages lower temperatures and a long list of improvements.

One of the most important changes is the addition of 54 new set of instructions called SSE4, the new package of Intel SIMD instructions, which is divided into 47 sub for SSE4.1 instructions that will be present in the current Penryn family, and 7 for SSE4.2 instructions that will be added to the upcoming Nehalem architecture.

What caught our attention was that on the website of manufacturer Intel, it appears that only supports DDR2, but in various forums, have been tested with the E7200 with DDR3 memory and apparently there is no problem. Some examples.

Virtualization enhanced by Intel Virtualization Technology will allow a platform to run multiple operating systems and applications in independent partitions. With virtualization, one computer system can function as multiple "virtual" systems.

The IHS has captured the initials ES Engineering Sample mean, which means it is an engineering sample, so it does not come with your box or cooler. Further down the only thing that can be translated is where it says 3M, which is the L2 cache has the E7200.At the end is the batch, which is what I usually look to see if Newbie. As you can see this engineering sample is very different to a normal processor, because it appears normal, model, frequency, and FSB and L2 cache.
