The Celeron D's (Prescott core) are a lot faster than the equivalent clock speed Celeron (Northwood core.)
 
I remember the glory days of the celly. 466mhz 128kb chache running at full bus speed. Was just as fast as the 450mhz PII 256kb runing at half bus speed for a lot less $. It was truly the A64 of ti's day. sad that it's fallen so far from what it one was.

Fine for Visual C++, probably for VS.Net too.

I used a P3-933 MHz for C++ development for 3 years and had no speed issues.

Sure a "reduild all" of 8 MB of CPP files took a little time, but not an obnoxious amount.

The Celeron's glory days ended after an OC'd 300@450 no longer did the trick for games 😉
 
I was going to tell you to visit www.anandtech.com. But someone already made a link to the review on AT.

Suffice to say the celeron isnt even good as a budget processor anymore.
Just get a low-end P4. Less money. More power.
 
Tell Karaktu the glory days of Celerons are over, I think he would disagree🙂 He has produced some pretty amazing OC's with Celeron's

nah ... The Celeron Glory days were re-lived
first off ... lots of the 300s ran at 504 🙂 ....
Second, the "celermine" 533's and 566's came out ... and nearly all of them would run at 100 FSB or better. my old BH6 ran with a Slotket and Celeron 533a @ 896mhz for a long time until finally the motherboard crapped out with some Bios Checksome errors.

a 2.53ghz Celeron D is about as fast as an athlon XP1800 for gaming. Probably close to a 1.8 or 2.0 ghz Pentium 4 Northwood. (Note, if it's not a Celeron D, then we are talking Comparable to a 1ghz PIV or Athlon Classic)
