Pentium DCore 5200

[Felixmagician]

Why is E5200 sold at almost the same price as E2200 or E2180? E2220 even seems to be more expensive than E5200.

5200 has twice the amount of cache than all other Pentium DCore processors and also the highest clock speed 2.5 GHz.
It is also the only Pentium that is of the new 45nm architecture.

Am I missing something here or is E5200 a bargain?

Because of the smaller process the 45nm chips are cheaper to produce. They ARE faster than 2xx0 series chips. Don't double post.
