Intel E5200 Gets Updated, R0 Stepping Coming Up
Intel's Pentium Dual-Core E5200 processor is getting on course for a specifications update. The chip will feature in a new, improved Wolfdale-2M core, spec'd out as the R0 stepping, from its current M0 stepping. The new stepping is intended to add new instructions, power-management features, and bring about changes in the chip-package. A short list of known changes is as follows:

That e5200 is a nice little proc, Intel has done a good job with it, very tempting to get one.

great processor for build a budget rig. hope it'll oc better for few 100s MHz than old ones.
it was pretty expected from intel cause they get short of working old M0 dies and newer e5300 and e5400 are based on R0 from their start (jan2009)

I love the E5000 series, just as I liked the E4000 series in it's day.
I just wish they wouldn't disable the extra instruction SEE instruction sets on these processor. Virtualization and execution disable bit I can understand.

I know, I was making a more broad statement about Intel disabling them on their processors processors, not specifically the E5000 series. I can understand why they would disable Virtualization and the NX-Bit on processors, but not the extra instruction sets. Sorry, I should have been more clear.

I just missed out on an E6400 on eBay, so I'll be keeping my eye on the current M0 prices. I think I can hold out until April.

E5200 reminds me of the P4. Fast, cheap, easy to OC. Hope Intel does the same approach to i7 processors. But I am not into Intel's Steeping updates this year. They are so lazy on updating steppings. I want lower TDPs.

fantastic little chips, tempted to get one off the bay and drop it in a mATX rig or something. Either that or just torture it to its max overclock

I wonder if it could hit 5GHz

Are there any clock improvements over M0 stepping? On HWbot the R0 stepping e5300 and e5400 don't have many submissions. I haven't seen any of these procs clocking better. Anyone have any ideas?

I really hope that the R0 revision doesn't limited the OC'ing ability.

If people already have an e5200, there would be v little benefit, maybe higher oc but i doubt it. Mostly curiosity to see if they can find a better overclocking chip. As the e5200 already overclocks very well i wouldn't be surprised if these new R0 steppings have poorer oc potential, like the q6600.

Yeah, I've been reading the OC thread.
