Combination of motherboard and Celeron

[raylee011]

Looking for a combination of motherboard and celeron. Any suggestion, looking for the best value, best performance, best stability after overclocking, best overclocking ability, I mean the best that you think, not PIII please.

proly the cellery 1.2 and a i815e mobo.
dont forget quality pci components and ram that can live with a high FSB.


Why do i feel like the lone sane voice in the mental assylum?

You poor lost soul, the Celeron is junk.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

had a friend who got a celleron 1.1 this last weekend.
and me a big athlon performance fan.
why?
cauz the only other option was a pentium4...
3 p4 systems were available to them, 2 had sdram, one with a tnt2m64, and the 3rd was priced beyond what anyone would pay.

they wanted a prebuilt system not for gaming...
i think they got a decent deal considering

A PIII 800EB will pass a Celeron 1100 in most benchmarks. And a PIII 700 overclocked to 933 will waste it.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

I have a couple of them with my clients, will have to persuade them for a upgrade or just give them a freebie 800 or 866!

Celeron 1.2 + i815e mobo (like asus tusl2c) would be good option. They are decent overclockers, most will hit 1.5Ghz, while a few hit 1.6Ghz+. And it smokes all coppermine p3's with ease at lower price point.
You don't need also to hunt down those 166mhz sdram chips, too.

I don't get it man, the Cel2's weren't all that past about 600mhz, below that they overclocked higher than the PIII's available at the time... but anyway, the Celeron 1.2Ghz uses the .13 process and 256K of L2, plus it doesn't seem to be out of line to get one up to a 133mhz fsb, where's the problem?

Independant thought is good.
It won't hurt for long.

I thought he was talking about the traditional Celeron II, not the Tualatin.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

[Crashman]
