Check the specs list below:
- 2.53 GHz Clock Speed, Dual-Core
- "Wolfdale" Core Architecture
- <45nm Manufacturing Technology
- 128 kB L1 Cache (Data/Instruction)
- 3 MB Shared L2 Cache (Full Speed)
- 1066 MHz Front Side Bus Speed
- Socket-775 Form Factor Design
- 1.2V Default Core Voltage
- Supports 32/64-bit Processing (EM64T)
- Supports SSE / SSE2 / SSE3 / SSE4.1
- Supports Intel Speedstep / C1E
- Supports Execute Disable (xD) Bit
The E700 model is an eco-friendly CPU because it has very low power consumption by default, and has a low core voltage level. The chip runs at low temperatures and has noise level. It would work fine even with minimal cooling say the specialists. The CPU performs well when overclocking and can do gaming/multimedia tasks with not problems. Overall, the Core 2 Duo E7200 is a great addition for any user. It retails for $130, 10x less than other 45nm processors.
