Tom's Hardware reviews new Celeron 1.7GHz

Seems to beat the Duron in most tests. Probably one of the reasons AMD is dumping the Duron by end of year?

tomshardware.com

"While the Celeron cannot keep apace with its older brother or the Duron at the same clock speeds, it has to run much faster by default - so it not only offers fast performance, but it fits perfectly into Intel's "clock speed sells" strategy.

In the end, it seems to work out: The Celeron Willamette 1.7 GHz is currently the fastest budget CPU. At $83, it is even slightly cheaper than AMD's Duron 1300 ($84)."
