Ali - RE: "2. "New" Celeron has CPUID=683 At the same time, the Intel's PCN #904 says that the new revised Coppermines, Core stepping B-0, all have CPUID=683. Coincidence? Not!" Interesting! This might explain why they are good overclockers. I previously thought the Celeron-2 was being made on the old stepping because that one had lower MHz. Since Celeron-2 is the same core as Cumine, is the Celeron-2 just a Cumine whose MHz couldn't get above 700/750MHz??? When more are sold and more overclockers get their hands on them we'll find out for sure. Depending on Cumine's top MHz and overall binsplits, Intel's Celeron-2 will be pretty MHz competitive with Spitfire this year. Performance, on the other hand...
