With the Wolfdale core Intel pours more power into a Core 2 Duo package. The 45nm process allowed Intel to reduce the power needed to 65W. Lower power means lower CPU heat, which translates to lower system heat and longer system life. They also packed more features into the chip.
L2 cache has been bumped to 6MB and the Front Side Bus has been pushed to 1333MHz. You can now use both DDR2 and the hot new DDR3 memory for extreme performance. 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; your 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.

sweet
- Pros: fast, runs cool, low voltage requirement, fast, 6 meg L2 cache, overclocks like nothing i've ever seen.
- Cons: some will say price, but i'm really happy with the price/performance ratio on this thing. much faster than my old E6320 and only a few bucks more. maybe i could have gotten it a little cheaper elsewhere, but Newegg got it to my house next day with free shipping. no complaints here.
- Other Thoughts: most people will probably have to update their BIOS to run this, but that's not a big deal. these processors appear to consistently and reliably overclock to 4 GHz and beyond if you're so inclined. my oldish motherboard is limited to 425 FSB so i can't clock mine over 3.825 GHz, but that's okay. i can run 3.825 at a miserly 1.225 Vcore. i'm impressed.
3DMark06 score of 17,606 with this and my dual Radeon HD3870's. my computer levitates about two inches above my desk now. i think it's self-aware.
Amazing Processor
- Pros: Very fast processor, also very cool and runs without much power drain. Since it's 45nm, this cpu overclocks really well; I got it to 3.8Ghz with no vcore change and the stock cooler.
- Cons: Somewhat expensive, but this thing performs 90% as well as the Core 2 Extreme Quads excluding multi-threaded applications. In that respect, it's a bargain.
- Other Thoughts: The stock cooler is much smaller than the other ones that came with old Conroe Core 2's. Running this stable at 3.8Ghz with stock voltages on stock cooling on a Gigabyte P35-DS3L.

best for the price
- Pros: for the price you get a darn good product i oc mine to 3.6 the stock cooler keeps it at ~60 under a load and 35 idle gives you a 6.7 in windows 7 user expierence index lol
- Cons: stock cooler wont let much more than 3.6 ghz i was ableto keep 3.7 durring winter time lol
- Other Thoughts: core 2 duo oc 3.6
3 gig a data memory
ati 3870x2
Eggcellent
- Pros: I bought it for a computer I was building last year; I've used it intensively with no problems, and when I built a new computer last month, I bought this same CPU for it.
- Cons: I don't like Intel's plastic (nylon?) screws for tightening the cooler.
- Other Thoughts: Asus P5Q-Pro motherboard
8gb Crucial Ballistix RAM
Windows 7
Mostly excellent
- Pros: I've owned this thing for about a year now. It's definitely a solid, fast, cheap(ish) proc. Good for gaming without destroying your wallet.
- Cons: I've had some trouble OCing...read below.
- Other Thoughts: It's a C0 revision. It's currently on an MSI P45-Neo2-FR board, and used to be on a GA-P35-DS3L. I've had a lot of trouble getting stable OC's with stock Vcore as some people are claiming to accomplish. To get 3.6 GHz (1600 FSB) stable running Orthos, I have to jack the Vcore to 1.33. I was never able to go past this with the P35 board, but I will attempt to use the more advanced settings on my P45 to accomplish this. Still, I'm perplexed by the amount of voltage required from both mobos to get this thing up to 3.6. Using a Zalman 120mm fan on it (bleh, got it for free) and Arctic Silver 5, load core temps around 53 degrees C, but Orthos will show hardware failures with ANYTHING less than 1.33 Vcore (same for both boards). Perhaps my cpu just isn't as good, or just requires more voltage and can handle it. I dunno, but I don't have the extra money to risk finding out its ultimate limit.

Highlights
 |
Specialized Dual-core Microarchitecture
The Intel Core 2 Duo processor includes dual execution cores in a single processor to enable execution of parallel threads or applications on separate cores, resulting in revolutionary dual-core performance, breakthrough processor energy efficiency and exceptional 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.
|
 |
Intel Advanced Smart Cache
Intel Advanced Smart Cache Technology dynamically allocates the shared L2 cache to each processor core based on workload. This efficient, multi-core-optimized implementation increases the probability that each core can access data from fast L2 cache, resulting in significantly reduced latency for frequently used data and improved performance.
|
 |
Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (Intel EM64T)
Intel EM64T provides an enhancement to Intel 32-bit architecture by enabling the desktop 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.
|
 |
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.
|
 |
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.
|
 |
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.
