Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 to go head to head with AM2 3600+ X2

Intel is to soon announce a new addition to it's excellent line up of Core 2 duo processors. The 6th member of the family is dubbed the E4300, which replaces the originally intended 1.6 GHz E4200. The E4300 is to have a clock speed of 1.8 GHz and sports a 2 MB L2 cache. However, unlike the rest of the lineup, will run at a bus speed of 800 MHz opposed to 1066 MHz.

Pricing is unknown as of now, but we think it will retail around the $150 mark. The CPU is Intel's weapon against the 3600+ X2, AMD's low budget dual core solution.

It is expected that by Q1 2007, Core 2 Duo will have replaced the Pentium D, and take over Intel's mainstream market.

We'll run some benchmarks with the E4300 once we obtain an engineer sample, so keep reading!!
