OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
The 45nm processor spec goes mobile with the Core 2 Duo T9300. You get top end notebook performance while drawing only 35W. Lower power means lower heat and longer battery life without taking a performance hit. Intel was also able to pack more features into the chip. This is boosted by the Intelligent Power Capability which manages CPU power loads to further increase battery life.

L2 cache has been bumped to 6MB and the Front Side Bus has been pushed to 800MHz. They also boosted memory access and execution speed with the Wide Dynamic Execution and Smart Memory Access. These combine to let the processor compute more instructions with more data per clock cycle. You'd better watch out those in game enemies will be shooting back faster now.

The Advanced Digital Media Boost feature has been enhanced with the addition of the SSE4 instruction set and Intel HD Boost. This will give your entertainment experience a boost with better audio and video processing. It will also help with speech recognition, engineering and scientific applications. Perhaps most important of all will be the boost to security with increased encryption power and speed.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This CPU made Assassin's Creed jump from 15-20FPS to 40-60FPS. WoW is well over 120FPS constant(v-sync off). Video rendering was cut by half, and PhotoShop CS2 tasks by the same. Temps dropped 20C from t5450, with same HSF, but with Antec Formula 5. Was hesitant to upgrade after some reviews on other sites stated this Proc was not worth the extra 3MB cache over the 8xxx, but would recommend to all persons.
Cons: Price. Penryn Mobile Quads are not out yet.
Other Thoughts: Gateway P-6831FX.. T9300, 3GB DDR2, 250BG HD, 8800m GTS.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Gateway P-6860 came stock with a T5550 (1.83). Put this baby in and it not only performs better because of a faster clock speed but the FSB is faster which means the memory is working faster. The windows index went from 4.8 to 5.4. It also increased the memory performance because of the link. Memory score went from 4.5 to 5.1. Over all score is 5.1 because it goes with the weakest link which is my memory until my 4 gigs of G skill 4-4-4-12 comes in.
Cons: 319 is a little pricey but hey you pay for performance
Other Thoughts: If you have a Gateway P-6860(BB) buy this processor now. Not only does it run faster but its running about 15C cooler than with the stock T5550. I've seen it get up to 55C during gaming with AS 5 applied. Thats awesome for a laptop. Can't beat the 45nm chips.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Dropped right into this cheap Walmart special laptop upgrading from the stock T2390 @1.86 to this with 6mb cache and 2.5 ghz. Just plain sick what a difference this makes. 45nm technology means it produces less heat, and battery life is improved since the proc works less.
Cons: Can't believe people drop an Egg because of the price????
Other Thoughts: I really rounded out this laptop using a Falcon 128 gb SSD (flashed with OZC firmware so it's a vertex) 4 GB of ram. Just for kicks, I dual boot Windows 7 and OS X 10.5.8. Amazing to take a cheap laptop and upgrade it to better than any custom option Dell sells on a new one (T8300 for $175)

Highlights

newegg Specialized Dual-core Microarchitecture
The Intel Core 2 Duo processor includes two execution cores in a single physical package to enable execution of parallel threads or applications on separate cores with dedicated CPU resources. The results enable outstanding dual-core performance and greater system response when running multi-threaded or multiple demanding applications simultaneously. The innovative 45nm dual-core technology optimizes thermal performance for reduced power consumption and noise.
newegg Intel Centrino Duo Mobile Technology
Intel Centrino Duo mobile technology has just gotten a mobility upgrade with the new Intel Core 2 Duo mobile processor. Its advanced capabilities provide twice the multitasking performance with improved energy efficiency for enhanced battery life so you get the benefits of a powerful dual-core PC plus all the benefits of mobility.
newegg Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T)
Intel EM64T provides an enhancement to Intel 32-bit architecture by enabling the mobile processor platform to access larger amounts of memory. With appropriate 64-bit supporting hardware and software, platforms based on an Intel processor supporting Intel EM64T can enable use of extended virtual and physical memory.
newegg Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology (EIST)
EIST allows the system to dynamically adjust processor voltage and core frequency to decrease average power consumption and average heat production. Combined with existing power saving features, EIST may provide an excellent balance between providing power when you need it and conserving power when you don’t.
newegg Execute Disable Bit (EDB)
Intel's Execute Disable Bit function can prevent certain classes of malicious "buffer overflow" attacks when combined with a supporting operating system. Execute Disable Bit allows the processor to classify areas in memory where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor disables code execution, preventing damage or worm propagation.
newegg Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT)
With Intel VT, one hardware platform functions as multiple "virtual" platforms. For business, Intel VT offers improved manageability, limiting downtime and maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions. In the home, Intel VT allows creating unique user environments for multiple family members using the same platform simultaneously.
