The Core 2 Duo CPUs are very attractive, but I'm wondering if the e4300 (1.8ghz, 800MT fsb, x9 multiplier) will end up being the 805D of the Core 2 Duo series.
With this low FSB, any P965 or 975X board should easily be able to whack the FSB to 266 (1066) and have an instant e6600 with a little less cache, and the higher multi means that any more overclocking from there has a larger influence for the same FSB increase.
I'd also be willing to bet on this CPU being pretty cheap.
Availability is Q1 2007. Price is around $150 although that price point doesn't current exist. Intel currently has the 915D at $133 and the 945D at $163, so it would be either one of those or somewhere in between.
nah there not a shitty manur. they just make a horrable processer in the cel d. but hey it is good for an extreme budget cpu that does only word and internet browsing... atleast its reliable.

I wouldn't say the Celeron D is horrible. It compares to a P4 as older Celerons compared to P3. Now, the Northwood Celerons'(400FSB) were junk, but the Prescott ones(533FSB 90nm) are ok. Just like with the Mendocino/Coppermine core Celerons could compete with P3 when O/Ced to the nines, the Prescott Celerons can also(with the exception of the unfortunate lack of HT).
WOW! Intel still wants to cut celeron Ds' prices 8O ?!?! We'll have $20 CPUs or "Take this junk and pay only shipping"-offers
Put them in a Cracker-Jack box.
lol nice! would be nice if we could find other shitty intel parts and only have to buy hd and ram! then i could build a comp for my grandparents!
Man, the world has changed! Gone are the days when you had to pay $1000 for a PC that altogeather made you sweat on it.True. When i finally can afford a new C2D system(hoping Q1 07) and get rid of my nicely O/Ced Prescott, i'll have to turn the heat back on in my comp. room, and start closing the window.

Haha gutted.
In this room i have 3 "heaters":
D930 @ 4.2
Northwood 2.8 @ 3.6 stock cooling.
Prescott 3.0 @ 3.4 Stock cooling.
The room is no hotter than any other room in my house, even though the machines are run pretty much 24/7.
