Intel Core 2 Duo E8400, 3Ghz E8400 (BX80570E8400A) Retail Processor

Great cool running processor perfect for gaming super overclocker- I easily got 30% using a stock fan, it's not stretched at all and will definitely go further.

If you are a hardened gamer or into top rate graphics requiring a reliable Cpu then you would be very foolish not to upgrade to one of the latest and most reliable chips. One very important piece of advice do not depend on the intel stock fan as it will not cool the cpu fast enough, consider an upgrade to something along the lines of a zalman at9500 aeroflower or similar. This is most important if you are also running a top rate graphics card.
Changing your CPU now will be fairly cheap too as the cost of core 2 duo chips are dropped due to the next generation cpu now on the market.
Trust me you do not need to think about the new generation cpu's yet as the core 2 duo will more than be capable of handling the workload.

High quality, very fast multi-core processor. New technology 45nm it's see from first step. Very recomendaded.

This Intel Mobile Core 2 Duo does not appear anywhere on Intel's own website.
It is a Socket 'P' (micro FCPGA) fitting and works with Intel's 965 Express chipset family
It can be found in HP laptops so it is probably an OEM special.
Intel's Processor ID Utility identifies it correctly even if it is not listed in their processor finder.
Spec:
2 Cores running at 2GHz with 800MHz FSB and having 2MB level 2 Cache.
This chip supports Intel EM64T, Enhanced Speed Step Technolocy and SSE3, it does not support Intel Virtualization Technology, only this last item seems to differentiate it from the popular and powerful T7250.
There is certainly no problem runnig this in a Dell Vostro 1700 (with up to date BIOS) and (subject to BIOS support) virtually any laptop using the 956 Express Chipset Family should support this seemingly rare chip.
If you see one offered used and are capable of fitting it in your laptop it makes a decent upgrade for Celeron M540 etc and most T5 series processors (Mine replaced a Celeron M550 giving me 2 cores running at the same 2GHz as the original single core chip but also provides a faster system bus (FSB) speed meaning that my memory runs at 667MHz rather than being slowed down to 533MHz as was the case with the Celeron.
