Types, maximum amount and channel number of RAM supported by Core 2 Duo E4600's memory controller. Some are specific to Intel only, some to AMD. Supported virtual machine optimization technologies. Processor technologies aimed at improving security, for example, by protecting against hacks.
You'll probably need this information if you require some particular technology. Technological capabilities and additional instructions supported by Core 2 Duo E4600. Some can even double their declared thermals given that the motherboard allows to tune the CPU power parameters. Note that power consumption of some processors can well exceed their nominal TDP, even without overclocking. Useful when planning a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. Information on Core 2 Duo E4600 compatibility with other computer components and devices: motherboard (look for socket type), power supply unit (look for power consumption) etc. These parameters can generally indicate CPU performance, but to be more precise you have to review its test results. Actual TDP may be lower if not all I/Os for chipsets are used.Basic microprocessor parameters such as number of cores, number of threads, base frequency and turbo boost clock, lithography, cache size and multiplier lock state. System and Maximum TDP is based on worst case scenarios. Processors that support 64-bit computing on Intel® architecture require an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. See for more information and applicability of this technology. Max Turbo Frequency refers to the maximum single-core processor frequency that can be achieved with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology. See for more information including details on which processors support Intel® HT Technology.
Processor numbers differentiate features within each processor family, not across different processor families. Intel processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Please refer to the Launch Date for market availability.
