These still remain today as the fastest Core 2 Duo processors, offering superior performance and efficiency not to mention stellar overclocking abilities.<img src="http://img.xcitefun.net/users/2008/06/4818,xcitefun-core2duo7200.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />The Wolfdale-3M family is, as you may have guessed, a cut-down version, and as the name alludes to, these processors feature a smaller 3MB L2 cache and a 1066MHz FSB. With the Core 2 Duo E7200, Intel is offering a 45nm processor that is considerably more affordable than the cheapest Wolfdale (~$180), and even undercuts other budget oriented models such as the E6550 that roughly costs $160, while the E4700 is also more expensive at around $140. <img src="http://img.xcitefun.net/users/2008/06/4817,xcitefun-core2duo-chip.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
