Intel Celeron D: New, Improved & Exceeds Expectations

Development Workstation Performance
In compilation, AMD still takes the cake, but the Celeron 335 manages to best the 2500+ Barton in this benchmark. We can see the more than 7% performance improvement when looking at the 20x100 Celeron D, and the 2.53GHz Celeron D 325 performs head and shoulders above the 2.6GHz Celeron with the addition of the 533MHz FSB.

Sorry for all the L2 cache size problems -- and thanks for the support AtaStrumf :-)Still, no excuse. I accept responsibility and appologize for the mistake.

I guess they're rewriting the article now :) Quite a big mistake with the L2 Cache, but hay, shit happens, no need to shout and yell about it to make yourself feel so much smarter mino.robg1701 - Thursday, June 24, 2004 - link
Ah good, I see im not the only one to notice the 'slight' page long error about the old celerons having 256k cache ;)mino - Thursday, June 24, 2004 - link
#18 the hell some mispronouncements."with sum BIG mistakes..." should be:
"with such BIG mistakes in every second sentence form Anand !"

PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAASE repair(or better-> REWRITE) that review, since(apartt from benchmark results) I didn't saw an article with sum BIG mistakes in every second sentence!Boys , I'm sorry for U but that Idiot who wrote that old Celeron does have 256k L2 is to be fired uppon !
Not to mention that 2.8Cel D should be compared to AXP2800+ or Semrpon2800+.
About 2500+ slower than 2200+: YES, it is a mistake undoubtedly there some where.

Man what a week for Intel; they release all this new high-end stuff that isn't worth jack yet (and is o/c locked), then come out with some actually decent Cellys for the low end. Shoring up the low end but letting the high-end kinda simmer/slack off? Doesn't seem like Intel's style. Also, I wonder if it's almost too late to save the day, as the northwood-based Celerons were horrible and that will hurt that product's image for a while to come (don't forget there are still people who won't buy an AMD processor because of the old THG video =) )Dasterdly - Thursday, June 24, 2004 - link
I agree with araczynski, first thing I looked for was a comparison from the prescot/northwood.araczynski - Thursday, June 24, 2004 - link
throw in perspective by including a couple prescot/northwood scores on the graphs.tfranzese - Thursday, June 24, 2004 - link
If only Intel were pricing these lower than competing AMD parts I might actaully build a system off these, but they'll have to work on that. Not to mention, as others have, the Sempron should be here soon and show improvements to an aging line.
