Intel Pentium 75 MHz processor board

Advantages: Slower than Pentium
Disadvantages: Cheaper

...The Celeron processor's done with Time computers are rubbish, and i recommend that you always go with the Pentium III Chip- you get better value for money, and faster running at the same speed. For exmaple, the Celeron at 1000 Mhz runs slower than the Pentium III at 800 MHz, because it is not as well designed. You think you are getting a good deal, but you are actually getting a slower computer. I know always make sure that i get Pentium chips- and often you can only tell which chip you have in the small print- make sure it is Pentium. It is more reliable, and easier to update without changing other things on the Mother Board- get Pentium Chips they are much better!!!... Read review

Advantages: fast, new
Disadvantages: expensive

...I upgraded from an Intel Pentium II 450 mhz to the new Intel Pentium III 700 mhz mainly because of the upgrade offer at a low cost. I found that immediately there was a noticeable difference and just the way in which my computer carried out every day tasks like opening programs and the likes seemed to fly through as if my old chip was carrying 4 suitcases with it on it's chores! I find no problems at all with it and I would seriously recommend it to anyone after a high speed processor with lightning speed and good capabilities.... Read review

Advantages: Cheap and fast compared to equivalent Intel chip
Disadvantages: Heat

...Ok, so when most people hear that I built my own computer with an AMD processor, they think whats an AMD, is it some cheap, slow, downmarket Intel? No. Reasons for buying - Most AMD processors are bought by more computer knowledgeable people, as they can make an AMD achieve what no pentium can do - overclocking. The other reasons why people buy the AMD's, is because of their speed, and low price. Speed - AMD Processors are classified by their equivalent Intel processors, so an AMD XP1800+ can do tasks at the same speed as a 1800MHz Intel processor, and an AMD XP2200+ can do tasks at the same speed as a 2200MHz Intel Pentium 4. Actual speeds of AMD's are different however to what their name suggests. An XP1800+ runs at 1.533GHz, and an XP2200+ runs at only 1.8GHz. It is the quality and caching on AMD boards however, that allow... Read review
