Intel E6300 - Conroe or Allendale?

[stuppy]

Hi,

I am confused about Intels E6300 CPU. I bought one of these just before christmas - not from OCUK, but checking the OCUK shop, the wording is exactly the same as where I bought it from.

Intel Core 2 DUO E6300 "LGA775 Allendale" 1.86GHz (1066FSB) - OEM

Now, I always thought that CPU I bought was code named Conroe. After reading this :-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core_2#Allendale

I am confused. The CPU sold on OCUK and the place that I got mine from state that these are Allendale cores, but that Wiki suggests otherwise.

According to the wiki, Conroe's have 4MB of L2 Cache. Allendales have the same physical 4MB but half of it is disabled. True Allendale chips have only 2MB physical L2 Cache.

So does this mean that the description/advertisment of these chips is wrong on both OCUK and the site I got it?

So the listings on OCUK and posibly lots of other retailers are incorrect?
