Intel Planning E3200 Pentium CPU? 45nm, 2.6Ghz, 1Mb L2 Cache

@ 2009/03/09
This 45nm CPU apparently runs at 2.6GHz (although the listed L2 cache speed and bus-to-core ratio suggest 2.4GHz), and it features 1MB of L2 cache, an 800MHz front-side bus, and a 65W power envelope. Core 2-derived Pentium E5000 processors all have 2MB of cache, so this is evidently an even cheaper derivative—and since the 2.5GHz Pentium E5200 costs $73 at Newegg right now, the E3200 should fall squarely in dual-core Celeron territory.
