corrections: E2140 is 1.6 GHz, E2160 is 1.8 GHz. thank you.

the 1MB cache really bottleneck ur game a lot compared to 4MB version.

any1 know bout Celeron dual core...? 4 series...

if OC 99, the bottleneck would be very less apparent.

intel plan to make celeron dual core?
whoa they really hate AMD so much meh, to the extent to slaughter the innocent little sempy

If you saw the benchmark between the 1MB,2MB and 4MB proc which are running at similar speed,there are only very minor difference only. Check it at xbitlabs.com .

yes, it appears that the only major setback for E21xx is heavy games performance. for digital media creation however, the shortcoming is very little.

how much the cache bottlenecks depends on whether the game is L2 cache intensive.

slaughter amd kau kau... lol, i always believe every dog has its day... i bet amd will pawn intel given time

hehe. AMD being slaughtered now? nahh. they're still producing equally good processors.

compare at same price point their performance difference are mostly only seen on benchies.

should see those days when AMD was about to close down, before the launch of the Athlon series.

There will be no Dual-Core celeron in the near future on their road map. AMD will survive. Or else we will see dull Intel coz of light competition.

Well thats the way the game has been since the beginning and not just for the processor industry. Earlier times it was the Intel pwning the amd's, cyrix and etc during the 8088,P2,P3 times...then cum P4 the AMD's started to be the better proc's...of course only till intel released the c2d...I'm pretty sure AMD will hire over some Intel R&D engineers and they will be back in the fray....its called industrial espionage, heck even the same thing is happening in F1...
