Manufacturer's product description
PC users are running multiple, intense software applications simultaneously, increasing demand on hardware resources. In the office, PC usage has changed from data entry and word processing to e-Commerce, online collaboration and an ever-increasing need for continual security and virus protection. In the home, interests have shifted from low-bandwidth photos and Internet surfing to downloading and viewing high definition videos, as well as advanced photo and video editing. The Intel Core 2 Duo processor was developed to meet all these demands. Built on the innovative Intel Core microarchitecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo desktop processor delivers revolutionary dual-core performance and breakthrough processor energy efficiency. With Intel Wide Dynamic Execution, Intel Smart Memory Access, Intel Advanced Smart Cache and Intel Digital Media Boost, this new processor is designed to do more in less time. Additional features to support enhanced security, virtualization, and 64-bit computing make the Intel Core 2 Duo the most impressive new processor developed for an increasingly multimedia-centered, high-definition world. Design changes in the Intel Core 2 Duo processors that improve performance also increase processor energy efficiency by operating at lower frequencies that require less power to run. Intel Intelligent Power Capability optimizes energy usage of the processor cores by turning on computing functions only when needed. This more energy-efficient processor supports smaller, more capable, and quieter desktop PC to conserve critical power resources.
Advantages: Very fast, cheap Disadvantages: need to have IT expereince
...This intel dual coreprocessor with 2.33Ghz speed (total speed of 4.6Ghz) with a 4MB Cache can handle an awful lot of demanding programs runnning at once, obviously it has its limits, but for the price its a very good processor. This processor is also compatable with 64 bit computing.
It has an LGA775 Socket which is compatable with most of the new motherboards if you are looking to upgrade or build your own pc. If you are looking to buy a processor i would highly recommend this one or several similar ones, but you need to have IT experience and know what you are doing before paying out for one of these. It comes with a 3 year limited warrenty so it is really set to last....

...pentium dual core is based on a 64-bit allendale processors targeted at mobile or desktop computers respectively.
intel wanted to bring back the pentium brand again to the market after its huge success. the first processores of dual core came in notebooks in 2007. these processors pentium t2060, t2080 and t2130 had the 32bit pentium-m core, and was the initial poineers of coreduo. the pentium dual-core was developed at the request of notebooks/laptops companies.
intel then realeased desktop pentium dual-core. these processors support intel64 extensions, based on the 64bit allendale core.
the core brand is intels 32it dual-core cpu's the come's from pentium m brand processors, microarchitecture whih is a combination of intel p6 and core microarchitecture of the new core2 cpu's. the core brand first released the 32bit yonah core cpu...

Advantages: cheap & good processor! Disadvantages: 1m cache
...Intel Pentium Dual CoreE2160 / 1.8 GHzprocessor is helpful for those people who want to buy good processor but in cheapest rate. It is a stripped down low cost version of the Core2Duo. The performance of the processor at stock speed is good. As it is a dual coreprocessor, its multitasking performance is very good.

Mainly I recommend these processor for office use only. But if you want to play games with it.. then the best configuration will be
1. 1333mhz capable motherboard
2. 2GB of DDR2 800mhz RAM
3. ATI 3850 or Geforce 8800gs graphics card
4. Western digital/ Maxtor hard disk
5. case, keyboard, mouse.....etc
Installation of the processor is easy. It is same as core2...
