Description:	The Celeron is the name of Intels value line of CPUs. It originally started out as a PII w/ NO L2 cache, performance was dismal at best. So Intel decided to add 128K on die at full speed These chips were fast, and overclocked very well. Next Intel switched the Cleron to a coppermine core, again with 128k of cache and eventually a 100MHz bus. Many of the Coppermine Celerons were PIIIs w/ half the cache disabled. This helped Intel sell chips who could not be validated as a PIII. -Covington - 0k of cache - SEPP Package 7.5 Million Transistors -80524 Mendocino (Celeron-A) - 0.25u 128k on chip 19 Million Transistors -Mobile Celeron - 128k - MMC-1/2 Package 19 Million Transistors -Coppermine-128 - 0.18 Micron 128K on die - SSE known as Celeron-II 28 Million Transistors -Mobile Coppermine Celeron - 128k Cache Low Voltage 28 Million Transistors -Coppermine-T - Tualatin core 256k Cache Known as Celeron-III 28.1 Million Transistors -Mobile Coppermine-T - 256k ond ie, Low Voltage 28.1 Million Transistors ----------------------------- Core: Coppermine Cache: 128k FSB: 100 -------------------- Mobile Version
