A note I found on the PentIII... hmmmm "A benchmark report on Ars Technica found that a new 500-MHz Pentium III chip didn't offer much better performance than a Celeron 300A overclocked to 450 MHz. Overclocking is the process of tricking the CPU into running faster than it's supposed to. The conclusion of Scott Wasson, the webmaster of the website Ars-Technica, is that a Pentium III overclocked to 560 MHz was only 7.57 percent faster than the 300A at 450 MHz in 3-D benchmarks, even though the chip has a 24.4 percent increase in clock speed and costs more than 12 times as much as the 300A.
