## Description

Product Description The first in a family of volume chipsets, the Intel® E7500 chipset supports dual-processor (DP) server systems optimized for the Intel Xeon processor with 512 KB L2 cache and Intel NetBurst microarchitecture.The Intel E7500 chipset design delivers maximized system bus, memory and I/O bandwidth to enhance performance, scalability and end-user productivity while providing a smooth transition to next-generation server technologies. desertcart.com desertcart.com Product Description The Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 brings two computing cores running at 2.93 GHz onto a single processor, giving mainstream users that extra horsepower to ensure that their computing experience won't slow down even when running multiple applications simultaneously. The processor uses the LGA775 socket for compatibility with many motherboards and features 3 MB of L2 cache and a 1066 MHz front side bus.Two Cores on One Chip Deliver Increased Processor Performance By using two processing cores, the E7500 can deliver higher performance with greater energy efficiency than older single-core processors. The E7500 brings robust performance for both home and business software applications, and users will be able to run more applications simultaneously with less stuttering and slowdown. Everything including email, downloading, online shopping, and video editing can be done simultaneously and with greater efficiency. No longer is it necessary to choose between work and play--with the E7500 you have it both ways at the same time. New Technologies Provide Higher Performance and Better Energy Efficiency By using hafnium, a naturally occurring element, Intel engineers were able to shrink the size of new Intel processors and pack more computing technology into less space. The processor also features Intel's Intelligent Power Capability, which allows it to turn off parts of itself when it isn't in use. The result is improved performance with less energy wastage and a reduction of heat and noise, making the processor easier on your wallet and easier on the environment. Intel has packed the Core 2 Duo E7500 with cutting-edge technologies for better performance. Wide Dynamic Execution allows the processor to do more tasks simultaneously by enabling the delivery of more instructions per clock cycle, while Advanced Smart Cache technology improves performance by physically placing data closer to the processing cores. And Smart Memory Access, which increases available data bandwidth, means you'll experience less slowdown while multi-tasking, so you can get more done. Multimedia Acceleration for Faster Content Creation If you are editing HD video, manipulating professional grade photos, or working with music, the E7500 will let your computer keep up with your imagination. The processor features Intel's Advanced Digital Media Boost for accelerating performance of a wide range of applications including video, gaming, speech and image, and photo processing among others. Additionally, Intel's HD Boost technology further improves the performance of SSE4-optimized applications, such as video editing and encoding in high definition. The Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 allows for a quieter, more energy-efficient PC while still maintaining a high level of performance. It it backed by a three-year warranty.

Review: VERY GOOD PRODUCT!!!! - my CPU has but of 4 years in the market and it is very slow, when buying this processor and to install it I improve 100 clear% he/she also buys a hard disk but big it changes the motherboard for a but modern also a video card and memory ram and I list computer for many years but!! EXCELLENT PRODUCT if they want something good and quick at a low cost this is what you/they need..
Review: Does not support Intel Virtualization Technology - I checked the Intel ARK site before I ordered this processor, and two of the listed variations said "boxed" on them and both boxed processors supported Intel VT-x. I assumed this was considered a boxed processor, and as such, would support VT-x. To my surprise, the spec code on the box for this processor is SLB9Z-- the only one out of the four spec codes listed on the ARK site that does not support VT-x. Processor works fine otherwise, but I was disappointed that I'll be unable to use Windows Virtual PC on this machine.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this gm5416e board supported?**
A: Should work on the gm5416e board.  Both the board and the CPU are socket LGA775.

**Q: supports on Intel 945GM express chipset?**
A: If your motherboard has a LGA775 socket it will support whatever else is on the board.

**Q: Would this cpu be good for just browsing the web and playing solitaire**
A: Yes, but it would be better, faster downloads if you went with something   newer  faster, this processor is old relatively speaking, I used it in my old tower cpu, I sent iMac i5 or i7 like 6 years ago.; and I think it is slow on the internet today, just doing emails, some research and FB chat sites 


 Do not know how well or fast it would work online  today.

**Q: I am planning to upgarde an Intel T2050 (Core Duo 1.6) to an Intel Core 2 Duo E775 or Intel T7200 (Core2 Duo 2.0) on an Intel 945GM express chipset?**
A: Good for you!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Great!
*by M***N on June 28, 2017*

The one I bought from Techdeal LLC (Click the link that said Used & new (16) from $2.04 + $2.45 shipping) works beautifully, got it literally 2 days after ordering (Ordered On June 26, 2017) even though it was to come by minimum at June 30th. Even though it was used, it works good as new. Great replacement for my Intel Celeron 450.
