    Without any actual stats to go off of, I would have to say the Pentium 4. I had a Celeron, near 2.0 and it was awful.

    Re: Which is faster, PIV 1.1 or Celeron 2.0?

    Let's assume they have the same memory, etc...? Will PIV 1.1 be faster than Celeron 2.0?

    A Celeron has 1/2 the on die cache that a Pentium has so its like comparing a 4 cyclinder car to another with a V8 Zoom zoom!

    I'm not so much on technical terms and so with cars... So which is faster? I am guessing it's the PIV 1.1?

    It will also always depend on the app running though. I can easily woop up an app that will be much slower on P4 then a celeron.

    What will the application do to cause the PIV to be slower?

    I thought they process data pretty much the same, but the celeron has less L1/L2 Cache?

    Re: Which is faster, PIV 1.1 or Celeron 2.0?

    I usually use this scenerio to explain it.

    If you have two cars, a car with a 4 cylinder engine and a 8 cylinder engine, and they are on the freeway they can both go 60 miles per hour. But if they encounter a large hill the one with the 4 cyliner engine will have trouble going over it because of the smaller engine and will go slow. The 8 cylinder engine car will go over the hill very easily and fast with no slow downs.

    So do you want to drive a small Honda civic (4 cylinder engine) or do you want to drive my Cobra (8 cylinder engine)?

    P4 has more pipes....branching kills it's performance.
