Celeron 857 vs Atom D2700 vs Atom D525

[arras]

Hello,

I am looking at purchasing a Zbox for a basic browse the internet, word, excel, light gaming pc. Which CPU would work best for me?

Thanks.

I think either the celeron 857 or the Atom D2700, the Celeron has better RAM bandwidth, higher bus speed, more L3 cache but the D2700 has hyperthreading and can support more PCI express lanes and consumes less power, i think the Celeron would perform a little better but the Atom would draw less power.

I am facing the same choice, but to use as a mini-server, hosting a SQL database, so again, which would be better processor?
