Celeron 1.1A or 1.2 ???

[Dennis Baliton]

Can anyone recommend which is a better overclocker for a BE6-II/IWill slocket II? What does the "A" signify? Thanks in advance.

A means it is the new .13u core Tualatin Celeron....

but both of the boards you mention do not support the Tualatin Celeron... You will need a powerleap adapter...

Or a Abit, Asus , Iwill socket (only ones that work so far) and do a little bit of modding to get it to work....

AS for the celeron 1.1a that is what i went with....
But if you can you really want the A, as the others dont really overclock that well... but once again, its harder to get the A working

For the BE6-II it is kinda a toss up. I would maybe go with the 1.1a. If you can see your 1.2 up close and find out if it is a retail Phillipine made chip then I would get that one! If it is a Malay then it is a 50/50 chance of it doing 133fsb. If the latter is the case I would then go with the 1.1a. If you have aboard without the 1/4 divider then I would go with the 1.3GHz cel-t as you can hit 120fsb and still be sitting good for hurtz.

The 1.0a or the 1.1a are the definite overclocking champs. 1.0a for pure FSB pleasure, the 1.1a for max MHz's.
