Intel continues with its quite release of New Core 2 Duo CPU’s. This week Intel quietly released the Core 2 Duo mobile CPU’s - the Core 2 Duo L7400 and the Core2Duo L7200. Both CPU’s offer ultra low voltage which will increase battery time and performance compared to the older models.
The desktop Core 2 Duo CPU’s run on 34 W of power (i.e. TDP), which were a vast improvement over the old Netburst / Pentium 4 power hungry processors. The new mobile Core 2 Duo processor will run on only 17 W of power. This will allow the mobile users to equip themselves with faster processors without comprising their battery time.
The Mobile Low Voltage Core 2 Duo Processors comes in two speeds. The Core 2 Duo L7400 runs at 1.5 GHz and the Core2Duo L7200 runs at 1.33 GHz. Both feature 4 MB of cache and a 667 MHz FSB.
Next quarter we can expect two more low voltage CPU’s for mobiles – the Core2Duo L7300 and the L7500. The L7300 clocks at 1.4 GHz and the L7500 clocks at 1.6 GHz. Both have an FSB of 800 MHz. The Core 2 Duo L7300 and L7500 will both use the new Santa Rosa CPU socket.
