Intel Core 2 Quad Core Q8300 2.50GHz 1333MHz 4MB Socket LGA775 OEM CPU

Features
The Intel Core 2 quad-core processor is the world's first quad-core desktop processor, delivering the latest in cutting-edge processor technology. This processor has been designed for your customers who are PC enthusiasts.

Today's multimedia applications such as video/audio editing and rendering, and 3D modeling focus on threaded computing for performance and demonstrate amazing scalability with quad-core processors. The Intel Core 2 quad-core processor takes on several tasks with significant improvements in system responsiveness by off-loading certain tasks to specific cores, thus freeing up additional processor resources for other tasks so your customers can get more done in less time!

Supports Intel Virtualization Technology (means that when Windows 7 is used to run XP within Vista, the CPU can be partitioned in order to ensure XP runs quickly and system does not slow down)

Specifications
Processor pin type: LGA775 (775 pin)
Architecture: 65nm process technology
L2 Cache: 4MB
