L2 cache on Cele-Tualatin

[Codfish]

Does the Tualatin Celeron have a 4-way set associative L2 cache like the old coppermine celeron or a 8-way set like the PIIIs?

Just found out it has a 8-way set. Here is a review if anyone is interested:

This confirms my suspician that the only performance loss is do to the 100MHz FSB. Should be interesting to overclock one to 1600MHz/133FSB!

Crash, toms numbers didnt add up in his two tualitin tests, soemthing else must be wrong with either toms reviewing methodology or the cpu, because the numbers for the p3 tually and the tually celly were very different.

I think it's just reached a bandwidth limit at 100MHz FSB. Kind of like the GeForce 2 did. 33% greater FSB probably yeilds 25% performance increase in that situation.
