Architecture Diagram Of The Celeron Willamette

We already published this diagram twice. However, as it also applies to the new Celeron, here it is again for your reference.

Please see the initial Pentium 4 review for more details on the Willamette core, or our review of the Celeron 1.7 GHz for some more information.

The Main Competitor: AMD Duron... Or Athlon?

AMD's Athlon XP series: slowly but surely, the lower-clocked versions have become competitors to Intel's Celeron, as well.

Whilst the battle at the low-end of the computer market was usually fought between AMD Duron and Intel Celeron, today there is another enemy for Intel. Due to the fact that AMD is going to phase out the Duron processor, the slower versions of the Athlon XP (Palomino or Thoroughbred core) will be the new budget processors. The reason for this move is primarily a cost calculation: having only one processor line reduces manufacturing costs.
