Heatsink Performance  
6–1 provides the E18764-001 heatsink performance for the processors of Intel 
Core™2 Duo Processor E8000 series with 6 MB cache, Intel Core™2 Duo Processor 
E7000 series with 3 MB cache, Intel Pentium dual-core processor E6000, E5000 series 
with 2 MB cache, and Intel
®
 Celeron
®
 processor E3x00 series with 1 MB cache. The 
results are based on the test procedure described in Section 
The tables also include a T
A
 assumption of 40° C for the Intel reference thermal 
solution at the processor fan heatsink inlet discussed Section 
2.4.1.
