I realize it will be slower as a whole, because of the 128K L2, but anyone else excited about the overclocking potential?
smaller L2, lower stock voltage, and I'm sure higher multiplier...
100mhz fsb, Celeron 1.2Ghz. 12 x 133 = 1596Mhz... 12 x 166 = 1992Mhz.
With a good board, good ram, I wonder if the PIII core can hit 2Ghz...
lol, I'm just laughing thinking about an overclocked Celeron kicking a P4's ass...
my prediction, Celeron will become the overclocking king again...

The New 1.0 Ghz T-bird stepping can overclock all the way to 1650 Mhz. That's a 65% crown to beat.
----
Actually, some more reading on my part reveals that it can hit 1768 Mhz with an average of 1668 Mhz. I don't think the Celeren will EVER beat that.

76% overclock?
yer right, I don't think the Celery can beat that...
however, 1.8Ghz on an Intel chipset OTHER than a piss poor P4...
gotta be good...

Yeah, can't argue with that. Give us anything but the P4....

The crown is won by % 0verclocking? In that case the PIII 500E wins. It will go to 1GHz at a 200MHz FSB. No crown for the Athlon in that arena. The average clock achievable for the PIII Coppermine is 980. Even at 975 the 500E is overclocked 95%

Oh, and the Celeron 333 went to 550, which is 65%. So it never gave up that % overclocking crown, except to the PIII 500E.

I hear that Intel will "eventually" release a 100MHz FSB version of the 512k PIII server chip. Now THAT interest ME!

What about the 1gig AYHJAR 'Y's?
They went to an <font color=red>average</font color=red> of 1668. That's almost a 70% OC, and lots of them went to 1700 or above.
Check it out <A HREF="http://www.athlonoc.com/steptbird.php" target="_new">here</A>

Not as nice as the 500E, but better than the Celery.

Theres a guy on the [h]ard forums who just took a 1.33axia to 2.09ghz, he was attacked but damn if he didnt pretty much proove he did it.

check it out, the link is on the main page of hardocp.com

Yeah, I saw that actually.

The 1 gigs are with air cooling, and averaged out though. That's the reason I pointed them out.

But 1.3 to 2.09...that's not too shabby :)

What threw me for a loop was that dude didnt even have a pelt, must have lived in alaska or something to keep his water so cool.

Nah, he probably threw some ice in the resovoir.

He said he has a passive radiator system, I have never done a water setup, do you have a resorvoir AND a radiator generally? If you had ice in the resovioir wouldnt the radiator heat up the water?

No, the water can be pumped from the resevior to the cooler to the radiator. Then the cooler warms it up boyond room temp, the radiator cools it down to ~room temp, where it returns to the ice laden resevior. Works fine until the ice is gone.

Yes, if I was building a system right now, I'd have to get one of those. And an A7A266. I use a lot of cards and need the compatability, don't really care about 2-3% overall better performance with the A7M if it can't support ALL my equipement.

Wow, 95%?! Ok, that's awesome. If they can do THAT kind of overclocking with a Ghz processor that would be insane!

Here's the fun part-at 100% overclocking with the 500E (200FSB), an i815 motherboard can run the memory at 150MHz, which ordinary Crucial Cas2 can run!

Crucial CAS2 can run at 159mhz with CAS3 settings without problem even with fast timing parameters set in the bios. I did that with two sticks of Crucial 256mb PC133 cas2 ram.

Yes, but it can also be run at 150MHz Cas2 with the slower timings.

Iwould never buy a celeron.

I run a P3 550e@869 on a daily basis.256mb Kingston 133 memory at 158fsb CAS2(Infinion chips 7.5ns)It's my main computer.I can run 880 or 914 but at CAS3a big performance hit 50%,and my scores DROP drastically.This is a full computer not a test bed setup.I think if i took out the Cdrom, CDRW, Sound card ,Ethernet card, modem, etc... I could go even higher.But what good is a computer without these?????
OH i forgot all air cooled.No peltier or water cooler.


I aint signing nothing!!!

I didn't know that, I will try it out sometime. Cas2 and the slower timings. Thanks.

Yes, my chips will do it, I hear some won't. Maybe it's the luck of the draw. But it wouldn't hurt to try.
