No.

Why would I be? If I recall correctly there are 4 Celerons available at the moment, or at least the last time I looked, two at (I think) 300 mhz, one with 128k cache, labeled A, and one without, not labeled A. Then there's a slower one without cache and a faster with cache, neither sporting A's. This is from memory, so I may have it wrong in detail. I'm not a hardware weenie.
I was referring to the fact the Celeron was specifically designed to be cheap for the low-end market with the trade-off being performance for people who, in Intel's view, don't require the performance. IMO, cache is a bad thing to sacrifice, but if it works for a market segment, it works. And its easier to overclock, but I seriously doubt that Intel marketing had that in mind <g>. |
