I have been reading about the new celeron II 566 which can be overclocked to
850 pretty easily.  Supposedly as easy as the celeron 300a to 450, which is
what I currently run.

Just wondering if anyone has tried it yet and how the performance is.

Thanks, Dave.

I have the 533 overclocked to 850.  I'm running two 12 meg voodoo2's in sli
mode.  I run at 1024x768 and get 36 fps with everything on except a full
field at the start will drop to 28 momentarily.

I have one running a 876 and it is great! I bought mine from
www.outsideloop.com. I can run 1024X768 with everything ON with only a
slight dip (30) in framerate at start with full filled. Worth every penny.

to overclock. Under 200 bucks to upgrade (at least it was when I got mine
a month ago) Ive got it matched up to a v3 3500.

just upgraded to a P3-600 OC'd to 842
Did cost $300 as compared to a Celery but it may be worth it. I have heard
that a Celery's performance is about 100mhz slower than a same mhz P3 even
though the numbers are the same. Not sure either way, but Im very pleased
