[Mr. Popo]

Intel C2D E4300 "allendale"

You say "Allendale", CPU-Z say "Conroe".

Great review! :worship:

Great review mate and very thorough. Well done I'll have to get me some Mushkin sticks some day

Looks like some pretty nice looking RAM, can't say I've ever come across Mushkin before though.

Great review! :worship:

Funnily enough I was reading about this yesterday, and you're right - there is no such thing as an Allendale according to Intel

They make seriously underrated RAM

Great stuff

 

[Deshman]

Ahhh, Apple. That would explain it. I try to steer away from Apple and advise others to do the same after the trouble I've experienced with Apple hardware (not just their PCs).

 

[Rastalovich]

Annoyingly, I see Mushkin, but keep reading as munshkin >.<

 

[Deshman]

Hehe me too. You'd think companies would think their names thoroughly before committing to them. A great example being the Mole Station Nursery, their web address of course being molesationnursery

Very nice review my friend!

 

[llwyd]

Thankyou guys. CPUz was wrong with a few things, the vlotage is way off, the core code-name is wrong (as you noticed) and the memory speed is reading as PC-6400 .........

 

[Mr. Popo]

CPU-Z was not wrong, the codename changed from Allendale to Conroe.

CPU-Z was not wrong, the codename changed from Allendale to Conroe.

Ah well I don't make a habit of following name changes, either way the voltages and memory speeds are wrong

Actualy Allendale has 1/2 the cache of conroe. Whether its just been disabled or removed i don't know.
