better

733A or 766A Celeron

I have Asus CUSL2-C 815 chipset
256 pc 133 Micron

so what can these chips do?
which one has the better performence for the value

only 20.00 in price difference

Yes I know all about the 566 have 2 already. Just building another machine and the 566 for sale now don't oc I've tried 3 of them. Store finally told me to screw off. Oh well. So 733 of 766.

Please feel free to e-mail me as well

You'll have more trouble overclocking these than with the 566s. If that's what you're shooting for then get a 600. If not, don't pay $20 for 33MHz.

The lower multipliers, on a whole, will give you better overclocking results since they aren't already pushed so hard.

So your saying the 600A is better then both 733/766 then ?

I am asking what the 733 and the 766 can do oc'ed there is notihng posted on the web page. Not sure if it been updated or the 733/766 cpu's are really bad?

anything over a 633 is terrable for overclocking, even the 667 which sometimes makes it to a 100mhz fsb for 1ghz is crap becasue a 600 on a 112mhz bus will be faster due to the extra memory bandwidth. You would be stuck under a 90mhz fsb with the 733 and 766 as they use such high muliplyers.

Yes i agree with the above posts about the cpu get a 566 or 600 u would be foolish to get a 700 and above celly although the 800 celly o/c well as lancelot has 1 and got it to 131 fsb thats damn good for a celeron.
