Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E8290

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 is a desktop processor with 2 cores and 2 threads. It uses the FCLGA775 socket. Rated TDP is 65 W.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 scores 1,302 in single-core performance and 1,408 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 1,354 for overall performance, 2,738 for productivity performance, 3,118 for creator performance, 1,311 for engineering performance and 4,258 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 704 per core, 704 per thread and 22 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 168. Its performance index is 17, so its overall performance is 83% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Workload sub-scores (integer math, floating point, compression, encryption, physics, SIMD, prime sieve and sorting) are not recorded for the Intel Core 2 Duo E8290.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 has 2 physical cores and runs 2 logical threads. It does not use a hybrid performance and efficiency core layout. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 2.83 GHz.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 is a desktop processor and belongs to the Intel Core 2 family.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 has 128 KB of L1 cache and 6 MB of L2 cache. That adds up to about 6.1 MB of cache, or 3.06 MB per core.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 has a 2-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 128 KB and L2 at 6 MB. L2 is the largest level and makes up about 98% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core 2 Duo E8290 uses the FCLGA775 socket.
