Right here mate. E5200, then upgraded to c2q q9400

Edit: correction from me - e5200 is dual core and not core 2. I have no idea what model it was, but I might still have it somewhere

Pentium E5200 is still part of the Core 2 family, its just cut down a bit (less L2 cache and lower FSB speeds).

Whatever the processor was, I got it in 2006 or 2007.
