The integrated Enhanced Speedstep is able to downclock the core dynamically as low as 1200 MHz to save power (in idle mode). Due to the Wide Dynamic Execution Technology, the core is able to simultaneously execute up to four instructions. The P8800 uses a Penryn (Montevina Update) core that features 2 integer units, 1 floating point unit, 1 load unit, and 1 store unit in a 14-stages long pipeline.

High end gamers should choose a higher clocked Dual Core instead (when using a high end GPU). Due to the smaller cache (Core 2 Duo T-Models got usually 6 MB at this clock rate), the TDP is only 25 Watt (instead of the 35 Watt of the T-models).ĭue to the relatively high clock speed, modern games (in 2009) should not be limited by the CPU speed (in conjunction with a middle class graphics card). It features 2.66 GHz and a shared level 2 cache of 3 MB. The Intel Core 2 Duo P8800 is a dual core processor for laptops. The power consumption is rated with a TDP of 18 Watt by AMD. Compared to the slow GMA 3150 in the Atom processors, the HD6310 offers a lot more performance and is about as fast as the Nvidia ION graphics solution. The integrated Radeon HD 6310 graphics card offers 80 shaders and an UVD3 video processor. On average the cpu performance of the E-240 should be between a 2 GHz Atom and a Celeron single core with 1.1 GHz. However, the performance is far worse than similar clocked Penryn (Celeron) or Danube (AMD V-Series) cores. In comparison to the Atom processors, the Bobcat architecture uses an " out-of-order" execution and is therefore faster at the same clock speed. Inside the E-240 one Bobcat core (the second one is deactivated) can access 512KB level 2 cache. It offers a relatively powerful integrated graphics card and a single channel DDR3-1066 memory controller. The AMD E-240 (codename Zacate) is a single core processor for small notebooks and netbooks.
