Intel’s New Cheaper CPU - Core 2 Duo E4300 – New Allendale Core Micro-Architecture - The CES has proved to be more exciting than usual and as expected, Steve Jobs stole the show with his iPhone keynote speech. Intel on the other hand has started to release it Quad Core Processors.
Along with the new powerful quad core processors, Intel is also trying to get the Core 2 CPU's in to the low end CPU market (where untill now Intel has been very successful with the Celron CPUs). Hence the E400 series and the new micro architecture - Allendale.
The Allendale micro architecture is based on the Conroe micro architecture found in all the Core 2 Duo processors.
