Intel Core 2 Duo Processor
Undergo improved energy efficiency, expanded wireless connectivity, and amazing freestyle life with the 45nm Penryn series Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 processor, which has a 2.40 GHz processor celerity, super-fast 800 MHz front-side bus (FSB), and a large 3 MB L2 cache. (An L2, or secondary, cache the meanwhile stores data; and a larger L2 cache can help speed up your system's performance. The FSB carries observations between the CPU and RAM, and a faster front-side bus will deliver better overall performance.)
The new hafnium-infused circuitry--which reduces electrical common leakage in transistors--conserves even more energy, giving you more time away from the fold up outlet. With a substantial 3 MB of shared L2 cache, data and instructions can be kept devoted to the two processor cores, greatly increasing performance and allowing the entire system to labour more efficiently. And, because the processor cores share the L2 cache, either can use the entire amount if the other happens to be lackadaisical.
