hi there
I bought an E2200 from ocuk (link)
The page says its an Intel Core 2 Duo E2200, I bought it because I heard that the Core2's overclock very well. Looking at the packaging of the E2200 it doesnt say core2 anywhere, only "Pentium Dual-core Processor". I've looked at pictures of more expensive Core 2's on ocuk and they clearly have "Core 2 Duo" on their box. Am I missing something here?
[edit] also, cpuz and all other applications that report cpu spec only state Pentium Dual Core, never Core2?
[edit2] my laptop has a core 2 and cpuz correctly reports this
[edit3] actually, the box in the picture in the link says "core 2 duo", the box that my cpu came in doesnt!
