Now, with the MBP having added a better processor, a better camera, and Thunderbolt, I can't imagine buying a Macbook considering the price difference (yet I love the plastic and don't like metal). Even when they had identical processors (late 2010) I just couldn't justify the Macbook to myself given the differences in features for $200. Finally I decided to change over to the Macbook Pro.

I went back and forth about what to do, and compared the Macbook and the MBP over and over (this was in November 2010). I liked it, BUT they had taken away several features that I liked from my older Macbook, namely: After it had numerous logic board and other failures, Apple replaced it and gave me a unibody plastic Macbook. My last computer was a non-unibody plastic Macbook. I've always owned and preferred plastic Mac notebooks. Here is my opinion, with a bit of background so you know where I am coming from: Specifications and connection of peripherals supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7.I don't understand the "build quality" comment either. Max resolution over HDMI 1.4ĪPIs supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 integrated GPUs, sometimes API versions are included. Maximum display resolutions supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 integrated GPUs, including resolutions over different interfaces.

Integrated graphics cardĪvailable interfaces and connections of Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 integrated GPUs. General parameters of integrated GPUs, if any. Types, maximum amount and channel quantity of RAM supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7.ĭepending on the motherboards, higher memory frequencies may be supported. Virtual machine speed-up technologies supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 are enumerated here. Intel® SSE4.1, Intel® SSE4.2, Intel® AVX2, Intel® AVX-512Ĭore 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 technologies aimed at improving security, for example, by protecting against hacks.

You'll probably need this information if you require some particular technology. Technological solutions and additional instructions supported by Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7. Some can even double their declared thermals given that the motherboard allows to tune the CPU power parameters. Note that power consumption of some processors can well exceed their nominal TDP, even without overclocking. Useful when planning a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. Information on Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 compatibility with other computer components: motherboard (look for socket type), power supply unit (look for power consumption) etc. These parameters indirectly say of CPU speed, though for more precise assessment you have to consider their test results. Core 2 Duo E6600 and Core i7-1065G7 basic parameters such as number of cores, number of threads, base frequency and turbo boost clock, lithography, cache size and multiplier lock state.
