Dual-core Wolfdale processors get cheaper. No, we are not talking about the next price reduction. The thing is that Intel is simply launching a new inexpensive Core 2 Duo E7200 processor, which belongs to the progressive 45nm processor family, even though it has somewhat limited functionality. Will it become a new bestseller? Let’s find out now!

Other Applications

The tests in the popular image and video editing applications from Adobe produce logical results. The Core 2 Duo E7200 fulfils its purpose in filling in the gap between the E8000 and E4000 series.

Mathematical computations in Mathematica and archiving in WinRAR are two very different tasks but the test systems show similar behavior. Both applications demand high memory performance, so it is the FSB frequency that affects the result the most. That’s why the Core 2 Duo E7200 with its 1067MHz bus is inferior to the Core 2 Duo E6550 with a 1333MHz FSB. We don’t see that in other tests.
