Is a 1Ghz Duron the same thing at an XP 1500+, just with a 200FSB?

Just thinking about this...what is the difference between these two CPU's? I am assuming cache size also plays a part.

How well does a duron 1Ghz overclock? Is it able to hit 1.33?

1.0Duron@200Mhz FSB = XP1500+@266Mhz FSB?(1.33Ghz)
1.1Duron@200Mhz FSB = XP1700+@266Mhz FSB?(1.47Ghz)
1.2Duron@200Mhz FSB = XP1800+@266Mhz FSB?(1.53Ghz)
1.3Duron@200Mhz FSB = XP2100+@266Mhz FSB?(1.73Ghz)

Wow, what are you stuffing your pipe with? You got any to share?

For the record, a Duron will perform somewhat less than an equivalently clocked Athlon or AthlonXP
This is intuitive since a Duron is merely an Athlon with less cache.

So it's more like

Duron OC@1.33Ghz 133FSB ~= Athlon 1.3Ghz 100FSB < AthlonXP 1500+
