allendale vs conroe

[maroon1]

When you use the term "Allendale", which processors are you referring to? The E6300 and E6400 are both Conroe's.

Actually not all E6300 and E6400 are Conroe's. Intel has made a newer revision of E6300 and E6400 in jan 2007

Just look at the list here in this website. "L2" are Allendales and all "B2" cores are Conroes

OK, so what are the diff between the conroes and allendales in respect to the e6300s and e6400s?

The concroe version of E6300s and E6400 have 4MB cache (2MB is disabled)

The allendale version has 2MB, and it has smaller die size

"The concroe version of E6300s and E6400 have 4MB cache (2MB is disabled)"

Is there anyway to unlock the 2mb? Probably a dumb questioon but I have a E6300.
