Good Old Newbie: Intel's Celeron 1.7 GHz for Socket 478May 15, 2002 - in Reviews
Socket 370 is officially dead. Back at CeBIT, Intel released their new server chipset E7500 to finally replace the Pentium III Tualatin in the server segment. Now that the Pentium 4 has become faster thanks to the Northwood core and 533 MHz FSB clock, the old Willamette core is being recycled in order to push the Socket 478 platform into the low-end market as well - eventually having run all processors except Xeon on the cute socket 478. How does the new 1.7 GHz Celeron compare to its main competitor, the AMD Duron 1.3 GHz?

HOT! An Early Look At The New Pentium III (Tualatin or Coppermine-T?)Jun 12, 2001 - in Reviews
Somehow one of those new Pentium III (Tualatin or Coppermine-T?) processors with the famous clock speed 1.13 GHz happened to fall in our lap. We think that for historical reason it should be us and nobody else, who tests Intel's second attempt to manufacture a Pentium III at this clock speed, so we gave the still 'secret' chip a good test run. Now we understand why Intel doesn't know if it should release it or not. Once overclocked to more than 1.4 GHz it is able to threaten Intel's fastest Pentium 4 processors.
