Intel Core 2 Duo E8200

2C/2T · 65 W

The Core 2 Duo E8200 was the entry model of Intel's first 45 nm Wolfdale desktop dual-cores, launched in early 2008. It runs at 2.66 GHz on a 1333 MHz front-side bus with 6 MB of shared L2 cache in a 65 W TDP, and supports Intel VT-x and Trusted Execution Technology. Its low power and heat made it a common choice for quiet and small-form-factor PCs.

OS support

Windows: Windows 10
Linux: UbuntuFedoraArch Linux
Notes: Windows 11 is out of reach: the chip is far below the 8th-generation floor on Microsoft's supported-processor list and its platforms offer no TPM 2.0 or Secure Boot. Windows 10 and the mainstream Linux distributions still install, because they are built for the x86-64 baseline, but the CPU has no SSE4.2 or POPCNT, so any software that requires x86-64-v2 or newer will not run. ChromeOS Flex does not cover hardware of this era.
