The transition of Intel’s budget processors to the new 90nm Prescott core is a very important event for the CPU market. New Celeron D CPUs acquired larger L2 cache, SSE3 instructions support and faster 533MHz bus. Will these innovations be enough to turn the ugly duckling into a beautiful swan? Check out our review of the new Celeron D, including detailed performance tests and overclocking experiments!
PCMark04 shows us somewhat more optimistic results for the new Intel budget processors. Celeron D 335 appears faster than Athlon XP 2800+ and Pentium 4 2.4GHz with 533MHz bus. Celeron D 330 overclocked to 3.8GHz runs neck and neck with Pentium 4 3.2E.
