JustinOhioRR Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 Ok, my comptuer isnt the newest, its a : Biostar M6TWG MOBO Celeron 600 XP Home 384 ram I am gonna upgrade my CPU just because I can upgrade it another 300 Mhz with a Celeron or P3. My question is this: Should I get an 850 PIII or a 900 Celeron? I was thinking the P3 because it is a stronger processor, but will the lack of 50 mhz between the two, actually make a difference? Thanks. Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8031-upgrading-cpu/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 I would go for the PIII if you can find one. Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8031-upgrading-cpu/#findComment-83795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

resopalrabotnick Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 according to tomshardware the piii will stand massive overclocking with good cooling and be frickin fast.

MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 Hell yeah, go with it man. those are good processors and 50Mhz. won't make any diff, but being a PIII will. I checked your link though, and I didn't see any 850 PIII's , it went from 800 to 866 maybe I overlooked it.

JustinOhioRR Posted September 28, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 wahts the difference between C1113 Pentium III 866MHz FC-PGA 133MHz FSB 256K Socket 370 OEM Processor Warranty : 30 Days Standard Warranty $22.00 $22.00 and C1111 Pentium III 800EBMHz FC-PGA 133MHz FSB 256K Socket 370 OEM Processor Warranty : 30 Days Standard Warranty $22.00 $22.00 The one say's 800EBMHz and the other says 866MHz, what does the EB stand for?

MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 those are 800Mhz. and I believe the EB stands for 133Mhz FSB and your MB is 100Mhz. This is the one you would need for your MB.......

MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 This is your MB specs. And it shows you could go to a 1000Mhz PIII CPU, but it has to have the 100Mhz FSB to be compatable Features/Specifications: Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8031-upgrading-cpu/#findComment-83810 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 So, I CAN use Slot 1, id rather use Slot 1 but i wasnt sure....... Socket 370 is better, but if all you could get with the right specs is slot1 it would be OK Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8031-upgrading-cpu/#findComment-83814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deerkill10 Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 slot 1 are harder to find i would go with a 370@1000 i have 2 of them collecting dust Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/8031-upgrading-cpu/#findComment-83815 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MYRIAGON Posted September 28, 2005 CID Share Posted September 28, 2005 also if you are into overclocking back in them days we used to take a celeron 66 Mhz FSB. CPU and run it at 100Mhz.FSB and cool the hell out of them, other than that you might want to see what deerkill has and make sure they are 100Mhz. FSB... this is what you would want to end up with..
