Intel will soon launch its fastest dual-core to date, the Core 2 Duo E8700 clocked at 3.5GHz. €259 in Belgium
Many of these 45nm parts will end up overclocked, and we're sure gamers will appreciate them. The price however, is another issue. At €259 the E8700 is no bargain, and you can get a pretty good quad core for less. It's still the highest clocked Intel desktop CPU out there, and this fact alone means it's worth mentioning. Like the E8600, the 3.5GHz E8700 has a 1333MHz FSB, 6MB L2-cache and has a rather good 65W TDP.

Intel Core 2 Duo at 3.5 GHz priced at 260 Euro
|
The recently-revealed Core 2 Duo E8700 has actually become available in one belgian store. Clocked at 3.5 GHz, the dual-core LGA775 processor is priced at 259,90 Euro, some 25 Euro higher than the 3.33 GHz E8600. The E8700 is listed as 'out of stock' but that's to be expected as Intel will likely want to start shipping it closer to the debut of AMD's first AM3 quad-, tri- and dual-core processors.
