About the Product
The Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 was a desktop processor with 2 cores. Intel is making the Core 2 Duo E7300 on a 45 nm production node using 420 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Core 2 Duo E7300, which limits its overclocking potential.
With the Wolfdale core, Intel pours more power into the Pentium package. The 45nm manufacturing tech allows Intel to reduce power requirements to 65W. Lower power means less CPU heat, which translates to lower system heat and longer system life.
