The Intel Celeron D processor delivers a balanced level of proven technology and exceptional value of desktop PCs. The Celeron D 326 processor is no exception and features a 2.66GHz clock speed, 533MHz FSB, and 256KB L2 cache. This processor is a competitive budget solution for home, office and classroom computing.
With this nimble processor popular tasks like surfing the Internet, using educational programs, working with home-office applications and listening to music can all be accomplished with ease. Other advanced features including Intel Execute Disable Bit, which allows the processor to disable worm and buffer overflow attacks on its own, and EM64T support, which permits greater use of virtual memory, are presented for enhanced system security and more efficient computing.
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.
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.
