amc11890 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 wow that is a really good deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 Its pretty good for that low price, but I don't like the Celeron processors.. Always processing information slow.. And memory is only 266mhz frequency on dual channel.. .. Still good for the money, but its just not enough for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbaker397 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 its a decent buy for people who want to download stuff like songs and crap onto a different PC and not mess up their gaming rig. or old people. or people like Justin..... or my friend baxter here....

raptors892004 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 Does that Celeron D work slower than P4s and AMDs that have the same processor speed even though its got 533fsb? Cuz I have the feeling that all Celerons work slow and heat up fast .. Is that true for all of them? What about for this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disturbed Posted September 29, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 i say - good buy for the money...id get one if i needed it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kamil234 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 yeah i heard celerons overheat fast and they are way slower than pentium and AMD, but i dont know..never accually owned one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 yeah i heard celerons overheat fast and they are way slower than pentium and AMD, but i dont know..never accually owned one A friend of mine had a Celeron.. I dont know if it was a D or anything, but on NFSU2, you could fry eggs on the pc case.. And I think the formula for Celeron speeds are P4 or AMDs divided by 3.. celeron 2.4ghz = 800mhz p4 .. something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shug7272 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 I have had a celeron and it ran just fine. Intel is way over rated anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disturbed Posted September 29, 2005 Author CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 celerons run just fine....its not a performance machine, but it runs what needs to be run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinOhioRR Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 Is that celeron really comparable to a P3 800 or is that guy just an idiot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 take a look here, here and here for Celeron vs. P4 benchmarks.. Maybe its not 3 times slower, but a bit slower for the speed of a P4 with the same processor speed.. Anyways, they heat up under pressure, so I'll stay with the P4's.. Saving a buck vs. overheating my pc components .. I'll give a few more bucks for a better processor.. Anyways they say the performance difference is because of the L2 caches.. I don't know if its true, but I prefer other processors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustinOhioRR Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 The thing is.......I DONT GAME OR DO ANY OF THAT!!! Did you see the one abotu MP3 compression and MPG video compression? They are abotu the same......Looks like I'd be moer than happy with a Celeron, the only difference is CACHE anyways.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroOne Posted September 29, 2005 CID Share Posted September 29, 2005 this is a good deal, but why bother building a pc when nowadays you can get a complete rig with a monitor and printer for $299-$399 anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
