P3 1.26Ghz or Celeron 1.53Ghz?

[boyRacer]

There's a P3 1.26Ghz 512K 133FSB i've got my eye on... just wondering if this would give me any advantage (fps wise) over my current proc... a Celeron 1.1A at 1.53Ghz 256K 139FSB? ...not worth it? What do you think?

i would think those two are a pretty even match

I think it's a waste of money.

Stick with the Celeron and save up for a P4.

i'd save up for a p4 northie also

but if i had to choose btw the two, i'd go with the tualatin 1.26 with 512k cache

it can also be overclocked, and i've seen some at 166mhz fsb with good ram

it would own that celeron

Hmmm... i guess you guys are right... waste of money eh... but my array with puke on itself at 166FSB...
