Intel Ships First Dual Core Celeron

Intel has now begun shipping the first of its low-end dual core processors: the 1.6GHz Celeron E1200. The processor is based on Intel's Core architecture and is manufactured using a 65nm process, with an 800MHz FSB and 512KB L2 cache. Intel's price (when sold in 1,000 unit quantities) is $53, with these CPUs coming into the market just below the 1.6GHz Pentium E2140 CPUs. Newegg.com has given the processor a price tag of $65.99 for the retail version, which is exactly $9 below that of the E2140.

Yup, I bit the bullet the other day. Let's just see how well one of these babies roll on an AW9D -Max.

JrRacinFanWhich is what? 1024x768?

How could he state then at that low of a resolution it was holding back the graphics card? I mean most graphics based cpu benches were done at that res or lower.

Now I could see if he ran 1440x900 or higher on all tests and then gave us a difference but I beleive those results are based more towards the cpu in itself. Just my .02.
Which is 1280x1024 at least on the 06 mark which would be the most relevant and most up to date one.

Oh ok, then that would be a mixture of both cpu and vid card. Still those numbers aren't horrible.
