Got this processor in a cheap Medion pc (from tescos £300) about six months ago was intially very impressed by the frequency 3.33 ghz which sounds good. However this is deceiving to the performance of the cpu i.e. though it handles simple pc tasks such as non demanding things like the internet it often slows down and nearly constantly runs at 100% frequency or quite near that level. Game performance with this cpu is poor and will lead to low fps rates and choppiness. This performance is due to the low cache size 512k, adequete cache size is one of the main neccesitys for good pc gaming and intensive applications.
In conclusion value for money but you get what you pay for, if your thinking of upgrading i'd delfinately go for a dual core processor for the sake of twenty pounds extra.

Always thought celeron D processors were shite, often used in cheap PCs to exaggerate performace. Good review, I now know to steer well clear of them, cheers!
