well, that was true in the time of the Northwoods vs Athlon XP,s, but now the tide has turnedRedpill said:This is the way it works:
Pentium's run cooler, but slow down when they get hot (hot for Intel is 40 degrees)
AMD's run hotter, but run 100% throttle all the time (hence why they burn out on people running crappy cooling) - They have a temperature threashold of "quoted -- 95 degrees" but would probably burn out at about 75+ depending on how long it's running that way for.
Athlon 64's are running cooler, while prescotts are going through the roof
I would have to say that Celerons are not "crap"Redpill said:Celeron's are crap, they're Intel's budget CPU's and shouldnt be used by anybody except schools or librarys trying to save a buck.
they may not perform as well as a Pentium 4 of the same frequency, but that's only because of less cache. the difference is actually not very much either
tech-forums is actually run on a 2.6GHZ Celeron, yet is very fast
not trying to attack you personally....
