HotHardware.com posted an evaluation and showcase of Intel's cost and power-efficient new Core 2 Duo E7200 Processor.
Wolfdale is Intel's first 45nm based dual-core design, and is an interesting product beyond first glance. When it was first announced, there was a bit of doubt throughout the industry of the chip's viability in the market. The doubt was that it would be foolish of Intel put major weight behind a dual-core processor architecture, as the future is clearly quad-core processors and beyond. More cores are always better, right? Why would Intel continue pushing dual-core models when quad-core models are getting more and more cost efficient? That's a fair question.Intel's Core 2 Duo E7200 Processor, Eco-Friendly Performance
