Hi was wondering what is the fastest p3 out ? I used to have a 1 gig p3 a while back and i thought they stopped at like 1.2 or around thier

 

[KILLorBE]

FCPGA2: 1.4GHz S (512kb) 1.33GHz (256kb)
FCPGA: 1.1GHz

so why has intel stopped the p3 line if they have i mean common a 2 gig slow arse celeron !!

that sucks the p3 should be at 2 gig


edit:

btw i like youre avatar the movie The Shinning with Jack Nicleson

They stopped P3's because they want to sell more P4's.

I agree it is a shame. The FCPGA2 chips (Tualatins) are
quite good. The celeron versions are hardly crippled at all
when compared to old or P4 celerons.

The Celerons me and Killorbe have keep up with 1.8-2g machines
when overclocked in everything except memory benches....

 

[DDR-PIII]

im gonna be gettin 1 or 2 of these "FCPGA2: 1.4GHz S (512kb)"

the celeron arent to good with number crunchine either. i donw like them at least the new ones 1.7 and up

Intel saw that the end of the P3 was at hand and moved to the P4. If Intel had stuck with the P3, they'd be in the same boat as AMD is now, fighting for every last MHz with costly retooling for each speed increase. Production lines down for retooling don't make any money, as AMD is finding out now...

amd doesnt have the money to blow on reasearch like the Intel company has so maybe that why they change stepping everynow and then.
