I personally am waiting to test an E4600 on an ASRock Conroe865PE motherboard. Seems like you just about can't go wrong with any of the C2Ds. Let's find out, shall we?Įnjoyed the review. Yet, another reported disappointing result. I've read a couple quick snaps on how well the E4500 overclocks so well that it was hard to believe. Interesting! I snapped a few screen shots for keep sake. While I was looking for the processor S-spec, I was surprised to find out Intel has changed almost all the C2D S-spec core Voltage to read 0.85 to 1.5V. Particularly, the new M0 stepping found in all E4500.ĬPUID v.1.41 reports the CPU voltage pretty much right onĮ4400 L2 on the left E4500 M0 on the right However, with $1 price difference E4300, E4400, and E4500 differ only in multipliers of 9, 10 and 11 respectively may be worthy to look into. So much so, the E4500 has not even touched the interest of many hardware review sites with 1333FSB, Quad Cores and X38 chipset dominate most of the headlines.

The CPU price war and further price reduction last July together with the collapse of DDR2 price in recent months has become a little paradise for computer shoppers. You would be far better off purchasing a new machine.Intel Core 2 Duo does not really need much of an introduction at this time more than a year after its début. HOWEVER, on a machine as old as yours, you will not be doing yourself any favours by upgrading (in my opinion). If you need help installing Windows 10, then you need to contact Microsoft for assistance: If not, then you can purchase Windows 10 from Microsoft: Windows 10 upgrade for assistive technology users If so, you may want to look at this Microsoft link: I assume you are looking for a path to a free upgrade. However, you may still have the opportunity to upgrade. And, to upgrade to Windows 10, you would have to have been running Windows 7 or Windows 8.x. The "free" period of upgrading to Windows 10 has passed. That is a little light for 32-bit Windows 10, and really light for 64-bit Windows 10. This is good, but how much longer will it be supported? This is the latest driver for your graphics card: NVIDIA DRIVERS GeForce 342.01 Driver WHQLĪs you can see, it was last updated in December 2016, and has Windows 10 drivers. This does not mean that Windows 10 will not run on this processor. It is not supported on Windows 10: Intel® Processor Support for Microsoft Windows® 10 This is your processor: Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor E4600 (2M Cache, 2.40 GHz, 800 MHz FSB) Product Specifications

This is really a question for Microsoft, but your hardware needs to be addressed.
