Intel Core 2 Duo T9500 2.60 GHz Socket P 6 MB

Mobile dual-core processor for Socket P systems

The Intel Core 2 Duo T9500 is a mobile CPU built for Socket P platforms. It delivers two cores running at 2.60 GHz with a 6 MB L2 cache. This tray processor suits technicians upgrading or repairing compatible laptops that use the 478-pin package.

Steady throughput with 800 MHz front-side bus

Under sustained workloads the 800 MHz front-side bus keeps data moving between the cores and the chipset without the bottlenecks seen in slower interconnects. The 6 MB shared L2 cache reduces trips to main memory during extended compile jobs or media encoding. Thermal output remains consistent because the architecture was designed for energy-efficient performance in mobile chassis.

Tray packaging implies installer-supplied cooling

The unit ships without a retail cooler or mounting hardware, so the builder must provide a compatible heatsink and thermal interface. The 478-pin uFCPGA socket requires precise alignment during installation to avoid bent pins. Once seated, the processor integrates into the laptop’s existing thermal solution, making it a direct drop-in for supported motherboards.
