Celeron 900?

[dude]

I work at a retail store and we have a computer that came in that has a celeron 900. Anyone else have one or hear about it?

[Endeavor]

celery 900s are the latest and greatest intel celeron chip
i think its 100mhz FSB x9

[Mr B]

Wow, they're out already?? I didn't think they had the 850's out yet.....

[Rainmaker]

had to happen sooner rather than later with so many c600s hitting 900 at default voltage.

The Intel roadmap states there will even be a Celeron 950 and 1Ghz (all 100FSB) near the end of the year. But these will be harder to overclock I guess cuz of the higher multipliers. (unless these will become cDO's or rejected Tualatin's maybe?!)

[Lancelot]

Just checked the Intel S-specs, and the Celeon 900's are cDO's. The Celeron 850 comes as cCO and cDO. Now I'm curious about their OCing abilities, lol!

[Zuck Gou :)]

I'm gonnna do some checks to see if I can find some cD0 Celerons.

I was just about to buy a Cel800 but now I've changed my mind. :)

[dude]

I would not buy one now. That price is way to high. I would wait about a month or two for they price to go down.

[dude]

I just went to the intel site and there they have listed al the way down to the 733 as having a cDO stepping. Anyone want to trade a celeron 733 cco for a cdo. Mine will do 950 at 1.85v:)

[Zuck Gou :)]

Im not buying one till my local store gets em, i have too much store credit ;p

[dude]

I took it out of the computer and looked at it to see if there was any difference in the appearance. They look exactly like the cCO stepping.

my celly 566 cbo does ~950 at 1.7v
i think i might be able to get it down to 1.65v but by then I'll have a p3

[WHipLAsh]

I have a P3 900. I am sure not many people have heard of that processor.

Hi guys,
this is a picture of C2 900 :-)

[The Doors]

and seems to be able to reach 1.2Ghz, but the WCpuid report that follow show strange thing like Fsb150 and Multiplier 8x?! (not Fsb133x9)

[batboy]

I'd be careful about buying a Celeron 900 just yet. The multiplier is getting too high again to make it a good overclocker. I'm not saying it won't overclock, I'm saying the chances that a good percentage of the C-900 chips might not make the magical 133 FSB. Just because a few do, doesn't not mean they all will. If you can't reach 133 and fall just short, then the bus dividers will cause everything to be way out of spec and perhaps more prone to instability. It's looking more and more to me like the Celeron 800 might be the next overclocking wonder chip of the Celeron realm. At 133 MHz FSB that will clock at 1064 which a vast majority of them seem to be capable of doing. That gives you a little head room to go further up the ladder without running the PCI bus etc. too far out of spec. Remember, if Intel could guarantee coppermines to run at 1200 at this current stepping, then they would be producing 1.2 chips right now.

[Lancelot]

That's right battboy! And that WhatCPU ID picture is of a Celeron 800 cuz the multiplier is '8' and the bus is at 150Mhz. The Celeron 900 would already reach 1200 with 133FSB...

[most deaf]

i am really fecked off, had to spend £100 i dont have on a new mobo that i thought had broken, turns out it was my celeron, so if anyone has a old celeron FC-PGA 370 lying around PLEASE email me

[The Doors]

I was thinking the same thing looking the Wcpuid report token from OCWorkbench, like the C2 pic, and for me the best way is to found a used P/// 700E from guys that don't know the OC World!

[Mord-Sith]

This is from the same place that the wcpuid pic came from ( http://www.ocworkbench.com/index.stm )

11.5x 100 (1.15G) OK !
8.5 x 133 (1.13G) OK !
8.5 x 140 (1.19G) OK !
8.5 x 150 (1.27G) OK !


I want to know how they used 2 different multipliers.

[Zuck Gou :)]

Different chips probably.. An 850 Celeron and a 766 Celeron

I dunno

[dude]

The chip is an engineering sample. It came with the multiplier unlocked. I do not know about you guys but these 100mhz fsb cDO stepping celerons are looking to be pretty awesome. I'll see If I can test the celeron 900 at work on my cusl-2c. I bet the 900's could hit the 133mhz mark.
