OLD intel parts...

[sithspawn]

hi guys, just a question.

Im not too clued up on intel (cause ive never used them) but my girlfriends comp currently has a pentium 3 800EB. (whatever the EB means) Anyway i have managed to get a hold of an old comp, and it has a celeron 850Mhz in it. Now the p3, for some reason, cant be overclocked at ALL. But i have managed to overclock the celeron to 912Mhz.

So my question is this:
Whats better? A 912Mhz Celeron (with a 107mhz fsb) or a p3 800Mhz (with a 133Mhz FSB)
??

cheers guys.

i know that the celeron's arent the greatest chips...but why??

i mean, the celeron is over 100Mhz faster, that has to count for something.

even if celeron 1ghz or p3 800eb, i'll go with p3

whats so wrong with them???

Celerons don't have a math coprocessor.

 

[sithspawn]

okay i think i can leave the celeron in the old bunky comp then.

thanks again for takin the time to write all that

LOL...sithspawn, if your not going to use the Celeron, why don't you sell it to someone who doesn't know how bad Celeron really is!!!

That was a great article. It really cleared alot of shit up. Where did you find it?

 

[sithspawn]
