Hot? OEM Celeron 335 for $59.99 at Microcenter

looks like they usually sell for around $90 so yeah I guess it's hot... if you can call a celeron hot.
 
Mine is certainly hot... about 51C
But yeah I picked one up today. I even talked the guy at the service desk into letting me return a zalman heatsink I bought in December and I swapped it for one of these.
 
The description says 2.8 Ghz Celeron D, but the Manufacturer Part number shows up as a 2.66 Ghz on PriceGrabber.

Does anyone know what is the correct speed of this processor?

Thanks
 
Cheap mobo? Shuttle mt63 at mwave for $35 plus shipping. $10 discount is you sign up for their emails. ATI RS300 integrated graphics on a micro-ATX.

I'm sorry, why would you link to your shopping basket? Doesn't make sense as it shows 'empty'.

VERY tempting! How well will it run as a server? Also, is it just me or is the low cache a concern?

The low cache isn't great of course, but it's very tolerable. You'll find that you can OC this a fair bit (but not up to FSB 800 (200x4). It's stock at 133x4, and you'll probably get 150 without breaking a sweat. With a good heatsink, 166 is feasible for most people.

I've got the chip one step down (2.8 GHz, stock at 400 FSB, and I'm running it at around 120 FSB), and I use it to crunch video all the time, use it for newsgroups, and use it to surf ATHD at the same time. No sweat.
 
Picked up the Celeron combo myself. Was considering building a server, this just made the decision that much easier 😀
 
"Beefcake", the Celeron D's are a separate chip. They are based on a 90 nm process; the old one is 130. The Celeron D's generally overclock quite a bit better -- 3.0 should be a minimum, 3.3 to 3.6 with decent cooling, and as high as 4.0. Also, the faster FSB makes a huge difference. And the 256KB cache versus the 128KB cache on your Celeron makes a difference, as well.

Think of the Cel-D's as a faster, cooler-running version of the original 256K cache Pentium 4's.

Both the Sempron and Celeron combo deals are pretty hot, IMO.
