Yesterday Intel quietly launched two new 45-nm CPUs to the channel: the quad-core Core 2 Q8300 and the dual-core Pentium E5300.
The Q8300 runs at 2.5GHz with a 1333MHz FSB, just like the Q9300, only the Q8300 ships with 4MB of L2 cache versus the Q9300's 6MB of L2. Intel lists tray pricing for the Q8300 at $224; $42 less than the Q9300. The E5300 runs at 2.6GHz with an 800MHz FSB and 2MB of L2 cache. It's priced at $86.
Intel also introduced a new Celeron E1500 CPU on Sunday, but no self-respecting gamer runs those CPUs anymore.
