Celeron D 360 review?

[Plekto]

So it's *FINALLY* out.

Does any site have a overclocking review of it?

sorry i cant help,
the only thing i wouldnt do is type celeron d 360 (and maybe even the wourd overclocking) into any search engine because you might get an answer and that would render this thread useless.

Ha Ha - very funny.

If you actually do a search like that, you pull up reviews from months ago before it even was released, and it's always about what they THINK it will do. Also, it's almost always a 356 chip that they are testing.

I mean - a non-pre-production sample that you cold buy today that's actually tested properly. I scoured the net for a legitimate test done in the last month or so and found... nothing at all.

The thing should easily OC to 5Ghz, but I was wondering what the heat and power useage for 6Ghz wold be - and if that woldl require water cooling or not. So far... no answers.

It seems like this chip is the new budget overclocker solution and I'd love to see Toms Hardware or another simmilar site do a real, non half-baked(no balsa wood spacers, please) review of this in action, since the 805 seems to have not really lived up to the hype. Water cooling, expensive motherboards, fancy memory...

I´d like to see a real review of that chip too. No luck so far. And, considering the current C2D hype and the upcoming G80 hype it´s unlikely it will ever happen. There are some real 352 reviews out there though. They should give you a rough idea of what to expect.

They are also are releasing a Celeron D 347: 3.06GHz, 512kb L2 cache Ceder Mill Celeron. It should be selling for about $55. Now that's a bargain, and a guaranteed 4.6GHz, 200 fsb overclock.
