The speed jump is just huge with this. I'm now able to do more things. Cons: The L1 and L2 caches are small, but this IS a budget CPU. Other Thoughts: If you have a Socket 478 motherboard that you still want to use and you want a cheap upgrade, get this. Did you find this review helpful?

wolfram Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year	5/4/2006 7:53:00 PM Good CPU, even for a gaming machine! Pros: Good speed, it can handle some new games, of course, with a good video card, nice FSB speed, you can use dual channel RAM. Cons: Small L2 Cache, a little hot, but it doesn´t compare to Pentium´s Prescott heat! Other Thoughts: You can have a mid range PC with this CPU, if you overclock it, it will perform even better. And for the price, it´s very good. I bought it at $xx :( Overall, good CPU if you´re stuck with Intel. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

Pros: another winner newegg!!!!upgraded my girlfriends pc, msi478 p4mam-v, from 2gig p4 400fsb to this. board had original bios in it and it booted right up, it set the right fsb and multi. i saw an immediate difference in speed, even with only 512 of 2100 in it, like alot. this is as quick as my asus p4p800e-deluxe, 2.53p4 533 fsb, ockled to 2.8 with a gig of dual channel in it. she doesnt do much heavy gaming so she is thrilled!!!!now if they could get the 3.0 800 fsb p4 prescott to around this price, im there,lol. just wonder what it would do with a gig of 266 or 333 2700 in it????yeah im looking,lol.

drew Tech Level: high Ownership: more than 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/25/2006 9:26:54 PM Pros: excellent performance. as good as a pentium for most tasks. Cons: idles around 66 degrees C. Other Thoughts: i'm very glad intel is doing away with the netburst architechture. as much as i like this processor, the heat it produces keeps me from being able to make my PC as quiet as i would like due to the need for a lot of cooling.

Tran Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg	2/13/2006 10:56:39 PM CPU Intel Celeron 2.8Ghz Pros: Bought this Celeron for speed and price. Saw no difference from the Pentium 4 with my normal office use. Newegg has excellent website, very reliable email systems to keep you up to date of what is going on with your order. Delivery is almost always on time. Don't know why others complained about UPS??? Left Z-Z-F (used to be google??) for poor customer service on a defective mother board. This is my 10th purchase with Newegg.com Cons: None so far Other Thoughts: Keep up the good work Newegg!! 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you?

adeoliver Tech Level: average Ownership: less than 1 day This user purchased this item from Newegg	12/26/2005 5:14:52 AM Massive overclocker............ Pros: All good for this little guy, I bought this simply to overclock it with one goal in mind.......3.5 Needless to say with stock heatsink/fan and some good venting in the case this little guy will run easy in the 3.5ghz range with lots more room to run. It push's through 12 hours of Prime95's torture test at 100% speed running at 55.C with no errors or shut downs. I used this with a biostar P4M80-M4. This CPU could easly hit 3.8+ with a strong power supply and adaquit cooling. Cons: None very impressed. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you?

N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	11/20/2005 7:14:05 PM Comments: Very fast for a Celeron w the right mobo, used an ECS848P. Make sure your Bios supports the Celeron Prescott, this runs nice & cool! Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	11/19/2005 8:18:37 PM nice and a bit more nicer with newegg Comments: first of all this little guy does his job. i already have 3 machines not counting my laptop (2 ftp file servers p4 based and one amd "main" home's pc) running in my house so my wife just couldnt allow me to spend alot on another ftp which i really needed. So i thought what the hell intel did a really nice job so i decided cheap celeron will do it 2 and i was right. This thing is nice nice nice nice. I really love it. I even tried it with the HL2 which my son plays now and it worked perfectly. So basically if u want something nice for the light use u wont regret it buy it Did you find this review helpful?

gliph Tech Level: Ownership:	11/18/2005 5:32:20 AM oc oc oc! Comments: i've bought the other brand in the past, but this cpu is great! i've only had it a few days and just started playing around with the OC'ing and its running stable @ 3.3ghz right now (21x160). that is just a fsb oc, i haven't even started playing with the voltages yet! these chips run a lot warmer than what i'm used to... its happy running idle between 45-50. personally i don't like that and have cranked out the cooler, it runs idle now at about 38. the stock cooler does a great job tho, you may want to replace the little thermal pad with something better. i don't have the good stuff, but the paste i have seems to be working fine. newegg is great as always, i was a bit worried about the new shipping partner, but it worked out fine, got it in 2 days using ground shipping (nj->oh).

N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	11/12/2005 1:01:36 PM Great Processor Comments: Absolutely superb processor. At 100% CPU for 1 hr. the temp was around 41C.

N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	10/30/2005 6:06:53 AM Sweetness Comments: I bought this cpu with frowns from all of my friends because it wasn't a pentium 4. After a while I had finally saved up enough and ordered it. Boy is it awesome! I was very impressed with how fast this thing can move. Definitely a recommended buy. As always with New Egg fast shipping and awesome service. Thanks for helping me get my computer up and running. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
BIG BAB BOB Tech Level: Ownership:	10/10/2005 10:48:34 PM WOW! Comments: Bought this for a budget CPU on a friends machine and it was a pleasant suprise I must say. Ran fairly fast at 2.8GIG and faster than the Northwood core Celeron. Overclocked this CPU on a 865PE Neo2 board with certified Crucial ram to 3.6GIG without a voltage change of any kind. For the price in a socket 478, you really cannot beat this proc. I will say that this comes with a copper core heatsink and works good in cooling this warmer running Celeron (warmer than Northwood core, anyway). Newegg is the best-shipped CPU a day early.

Overclockt Tech Level: Ownership:	10/2/2005 6:31:32 PM Unfortunate Comments: I was unlucky and unable to bring this bad boy to 4.0ghz. I personally know many celerons have it in them but the chip I recieved sure didnt. 3.8 stable was the best I could manage without increasing VCORE over 1.5v, and another 200 mhz would have needed the core at around 1.75~ or instand death to my motherboard! Still a good chip for the cash though... Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	9/27/2005 5:56:40 PM Comments: Great little cpu. Running in a custom built computer with a ECS pt800 motherboard. Runs very stable. Very overclockable temps are 31C at idle and 43C load. Not the best gaming cpu due to its low cashe but it really suprized me. runs Halo fine with a nVidia FX5200 Did you find this review helpful?

Mystery Tech Level: Ownership:	9/21/2005 10:17:16 PM Comments: Placed this in a custom built for a friend Team w/ Kingston HyperXs dual channel 512s Soars like my P4 3.0 OCed @4.2Ghz w/ 4GB Corsair dual channels RAM this CPU runs stable and reliable. good for the buck Good for light gaming, not for extreme gaming though Amazed with this CPU & planned to get me one in the near future. recommend to peps with budget. got here in 2 days with my other orders.....Newegg/FedEx.....you rock as usual Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	8/25/2005 12:12:19 AM Comments: AWESOME cpu! Intel has got it right on the performance and little to take out the wallet. Placed this bad boy into an Abit VT7 mobo, w/1 gig of OZC PC3200 dual channel memory and an Nvidia 5700 Ultra..which by the way is still a hellofa gpu and im tellin ya this cpu runs any game outthere with some good eyecandy and plenty of performance to boot. NEWEGG ROCKS! Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
ksharp25 Tech Level: Ownership:	8/24/2005 12:29:58 PM Great Buy Comments: I have read the other comments stating that this is not a "gamers" CPU. Well that is not true. I paired it with a 256 MB Video card as 1.5 GB PC3200 DDR RAM. And this little guy is a screamer. So if you are looking to get a robust system as a reasonable price, this processor does its job well. Plus it does not heat up as much as its true Pentium 4 counterpart (Prescott). Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
tom Tech Level: Ownership:	6/23/2005 2:26:43 PM great value cpu Comments: i loved this cpu when i bought it it is a socket 478 that kicks for a celeron. highly overclockable and if you google it oc'ed celeron's can run as fast or faster then some of the equivelent stock p4's. great it does everything i need.

The MagicDuc Tech Level: Ownership:	6/21/2005 4:22:07 AM Comments: Used this CPU in my first mid-range gaming comp build. I know, I know, its a budget processor but i didnt have enough cash to go AMD 64. Paired with a 1gig of ddr 400 and a Geforce FX5700LE 256mg it runs Doom 3 and Half Life 2 pretty good on default settings, but if you're looking for a gaming cpu i'd go for a big P4 or AMD 64.

N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	6/13/2005 5:58:44 AM Comments: I purchased this Celeron to build myself a computer that is mainly used to surf the internet and for some games.

I used artic silver thermal Paste to help keep it cool.Runs Fast through Games and loads webpages fast. 2.8 GHZ (Didn't O/C yet) 1024 MB Kingston DDR Ram 40 GB Hd (From my old Pc gonna get a 160 soon) Did you find this review helpful?

valhallaprime Tech Level: Ownership:	6/4/2005 1:05:52 AM Excellent Value! Comments: Bought this proc to replace my wife's aging 1.6 (1.8 OC) P4 on a P4P800 Asus....OK, This thing, with factory cooling - we OC'd right to 3.55 Ghz on the Asus (factory cooling + 2x80mm on the case), no prob AT ALL. Not even a voltage nudge. Idle runs about 38, load climbs to 56C in a 72f degree ambient room under HL2 load. Normally this would be high, but remember, this is a Prescott core, and thats -way- under the ceiling. I can go 3.6, but the temps start to go above 60c...besides the 3.5ghz being way enough for CS:S and HL2...These Celery D's have cache once again, so they're not the slouches of their previous generation. Strong recommend, unless you're the Husband and run Athlon64's already. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
XPC Tech Level: Ownership:	6/3/2005 8:21:49 AM Unusually fast Comments: The extra cache helps, but these chips are not for gaming. Desktop performance and low heat levels help this chip rival the slower Pentium 4 Prescotts. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	5/19/2005 8:55:55 AM Comments: used this to build a cheap system for a family member that basically just surfs the web and checks email.

N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	4/6/2005 5:48:13 AM Comments: Newegg got this to me quickly as usual. The performance of this CPU has so far has been fine. I know that temps of the prescott are normally high, but I guess I finally figured a way to keep mine cool. A dab of Thermal, 2 80mm fans in the rear of the case blowing exhaust and an 80mm intake on the side. The case temps are 87F, and the CPU temp averages 101-105F according to the MB.

stat.Punisher Tech Level: Ownership:	2/21/2005 3:12:24 PM Nice Upgrade Comments: As usual Newegg is awesome , I wont deal with another company , used this CPU to upgrade from a 2.4 Ghz. Nothwood Celly 400 Mhz. FSB, Paired with a BFG Tech 6800oc the Comp had some screen shudder and was unstable in certain Games with the 2.4 , with this CPU there are no issues. the performance I have Experienced is close behind my 3.06 Ghz. Northwood Oc'ed to 3.1 , if your looking for a cheap CPU for Gaming I would not hesitate to purchase this , Thanks Newegg... Did you find this review helpful?

mappychris Tech Level: Ownership:	2/20/2005 10:02:59 PM Good performance Comments: While certainly not as fast as a Pentium 4 clocked at the same speed, the Prescott 335 model of the Celeron D boasts asignificant improvement over its slower cousin, the Northwood Celeron. With its increased FSB bus and L2 cache, I saw speeds 20% faster than that of my Northwood Celeron running at 2.7 GHz. Games will run a bit better with this processor compared to the Northwood Celeron. The price is much cheaper than a Pentium 4 and the Celeron D's reliability is also good. A must buy for moderate gaming system, with day-to-day purpose. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
Gonga Tech Level: Ownership:	1/28/2005 5:26:06 PM Comments: Celeron processors have long been a favorite of mine, due to their reliability and lower cost. I upgraded my computer from a p3 900mhz to this processor, and the level of speed is amazing. ALso, running a gig of pc3200 ram helps, but the meat of the matter is the processor. Great price, and great Newegg experience. Delivery was two days earlier than anticipated. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A Tech Level: Ownership:	8/14/2004 7:33:46 PM Nice Processor a Welcome edition to the Celeron Line! Comments: Refered to by some as yesterday's pentium 4 at todays prices,this processor is excellent. Being a longtime Celeron user and having used a 2.0Ghz Celeron w/128k L2 Cache with my last system,when i recently built my latest Pc i had to try out this beauty.At 2.8Ghz and with 256 L2 Cache it is much faster than my previous Celeron and performs quite well.Nice! This processor is also priced the same as older model 2.8Ghz Celerons available.So if your going to go with a budget intel processor this is the one to get. Did you find this review helpful?

NotApplicable Tech Level: Ownership:	8/4/2004 7:28:13 PM An improvement over the non-D model Comments: There's definitely some marginal improvement over the 2.8 Celeron (400Mhz FSB). On a Shuttle SB61G2V3 with built-in Intel Extreme Graphics 2, the older 2.8 pulls about 1900 3DMark2001's. The same system with this new 2.8 Celeron D pulls about 2520 3DMark2001's. The D is running about 42 degrees C which is about 10 degrees C more than the older 2.8. Of course, even a $xx graphics card bumps the non-D system to about 3700 3DMark2001's, so you can figure out where to put your money. Did you find this review helpful?
