What is the difference between t5450 and t8100 processors?

The main difference is the manufacturing technology. CPUs of the series T5xxx and T7xxx are of the Merom core and manufactured on a 65nm structure. The T8xxx and T9xxx are of the Penryn core and manufactured on a 45nm structure. Because of the reduced structure it was possible to increase the L2 cache by 1MB (on the T8xxx series) resp. 2MB (on the T9xxx series).

Difference between T5450 and T8100

T5450: 1.66Ghz, 2MB L2 cache, 667Mhz FSB, Merom 65nm

T8100: 2.1Ghz, 3MB L2 cache, 800Mhz FSB, Penryn 45nm

these 2 processors are interchangeable because both uses Socket P (Santa Rosa platform).
