Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200
************************
We are now in 21st century and most interesting changes for this period are in computer and mobile phone industries. Life is moving very fast and there is no scope for traditional thinking. So we are getting unexpected technology now days. We have some popular brands in computer technology and they are still getting good response from overall market.
***
In this category we have some good dual core processors and they are still very popular with good processing speed and low price. Sometimes ago we got Pentium4 models from Intel and they were long run processors in the line. Celeron series processors are still popular in low budget category. The time is changing very fast and multicore processors are getting more popularity due to its performance and speed. We cant ignore latest product in dualcore category as they are mandatory for latest applications.
If we have a look on some applications like commonly use Adobe Photoshop, which is now available with CS4, it require atleast 2GHz processor with 2GB RAM. But the reallity is that we cant get such a good performance with 2GHz processor and even 2 GB RAM also.
So If we use latest versions of applications then we definitely need some fast speed and multicore processors.

Here I am going to discuss about a budget processor from Intel and it is still getting good response with its fast speed performance and low price features. This processor, Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 GHz has some latest features which may be as per your choice, like its new 45nm technology and low poer consumption with about 65 W.
***
The new technology with 45 nm is most important feature for this processor as it may be a good choice for hot climatic reasons. Due to this feature, this processor generates very less heat and the problem of computer crash due to high temperature doesn't happen with it. High temperature is a main problem in Asian countries, so this processor can be a good budget choice for these countries.

Next important features are its fast clock speed with almost 2.5 GHz and front side bus speed of about 800 MHz. One more feature that is important is its 2 MB of L2 cache size.
Now have a look on above features and its performance. The 2,5 GHz speed is good enough for any regular applications with Windows Vista operating system of Macintosh Leopard latest version. 2 GHz and more speed processors with multicore processors are good for this purpose.
This processor also has more than 2 GHz clock speed and 2 processing cores. The next feature of front side data bus speed also require for high speed data transfer. We are getting here 800 MHz of data speed and this is s still very popular for any processor and RAM. If we have same speed RAM with 800 MHz speed than we will get best performance with this processor.
L2 cache performs well to provide smooth running speed with temporary data storage and 2 MB speed is good but not best for multicore processors. But for Windows Vista operating system, atleast 2 MB is necessary.
***
Processor is a perfect solution for almost all regular applications and games, for Microsoft office, internet access; Photoshop's all versions and almost all regular games. If we have a good combination with 4 GB of DDR2 RAM with 800 MHz of speed, then we will get superb performance will almost all regular applications and some advanced versions also. It will perform extremely good with Adobe Photoshop CS3 and even with CS4, excellent performance with Autodesk AutoCad 2D application and all regular applications.
For good performance with 3D application, this processor can be a better choice if you have good graphics card installed. We cant get adequate performance even with good quad core processors also without having proper graphics card. So this processor is a good budget choice for some 3D applications also with proper combination of graphics memory. It performs an average performace with Google Sketchup and 3ds max with regular graphics memory. If we have good graphics memory like nvidia quadro then it will performs extremely good.
So have a fun with this for your routine work with high speed performerswithout putting so much of pressure on your pocket. Recommended.
