The Core 2 Duo E7200 certainly isn’t the fastest chip for Photoshop work, but it’s definitely respectable. Photoshop doesn’t make full use of quad-core systems, so a highly clocked dual-core can put up some very solid benchmark results. Photoshop really likes high clock speeds, and such, when we see the E7200 chip overclocked to 3.5 GHz, performance levels are on par with Intel’s lower-clocked quad-core offerings.  This is rather impressive for a $130 budget chip.
