What to expect from a Celeron 4 1.7GHz for SoB?

I just locked a deal in the FS forums and will soon add a budget cruncher. It's going in a Abit IT7-Max2 or an Intel D845GLADD. Most likely I will put it in the Abit as I want to know the OC'ing potentail of the Nov. 2002 chip. But the memory may be a limiting factor for OC'ing though.

Anyway what kind of numbers do you all think I will get from the setup? I am kinda pessamistic being it only has 128K of cache. But there is hope if I can get it to 133+ FSB. Then it may out perform my p4 1.6 @ 2.13... or not??? 2.26GHz or higher would be kinda sweet for a dirt cheap CPU.
 
I'm not too sure of the relation between the grown up P4 and the castrated Celeron, in terms of cache etc, but I think it's probably just pure clock speed, and the SSE2 enhancements that will be good for SB 🙂

Of course, the best way to find out is to test it yourself 🙂

Good luck with the overclock 🙂
