Both run at 100 mHz ??. If so, the Celeron is faster in most apps.  If 66
mHz for the Celeron, the P2 at 100 would be in throughput.  Cache is faster
on the Celeron as it is a CPU speed, P2 at half speed.

A friend had a Celeron 400 (66 mHz), I got him a PII 450 (100 mHz).  His
pool game became very slow in graphics, jerky.  Put back the Celeron and
away it went.  I got him a Celeron 533 eventually.  Board couldn't handle
PIIIs.  the half speed cache made a big difference.

Hello,

After some technical problems with an old PII-400MHz computer of mine
(mainboard was broken) I obtained a new mainboard. This mainboard also
included a Celeron 500MHz processor.

I now have the option of using either the PII-400 or the Celeren-500.
Which of these is the faster/better one for Seti@Home?

Best regards,

Patrick.
