Dang! A Celly @ 3.7Ghz must almost be able to run Solitaire & Minesweeper at a decent speed! ;)
Very nice overclock OPP, could you give us some benchies at that speed too? :toast:
Celerons SUCK for anything 3d... They are okay for applications that stream data and dont need much l2 cache, like DIVX encoding, mp3 encoding, or anything like that.
heh do they make good folders?
Heres a CPU bench at 3600, pretty sad actually.
OPP
Heres some MM, I'm not sure how good this is, It looks kinda high :D
Good folder! :D
I was just going to PM you this:D The thing did like 3300 Mhz at 1.6 Volts. It has hit a block though, I should shove 2 Volts into this puppy and see if it will go higher:DQuote:

hell of alot better then spending $700 on a 3.06 to get 3.7ghz :D i might just change my mind about the agoia 1600+ i was going to use for the folding rig :D
as always OPP... im impressed :toast:
LOL thats awesome!! Too bad the Celies are a POS
Dam mine only gets 3200 on air, is that in your prometeia opp?? What were your 3dmark scores with it??
Only reason i bought one was it was $59 on intels IPD. . I have a 2.1 also and a 2.2 on the way. The 2.1 is sold in a rig @ 3ghz. I made a killing.
And as far as sucking. They do fold@home just as fast as p4's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! @ my same 3200mhz on a P4, i tested it. ,
I do lose almost 4.5 to 5k in 3dmark. compared to a p4 @ the same speed.
But still What chip can you get for $60-90 that will let you hit over 13k in 3dmark, my 9700 pro of course. CPU on air and just a factory intel heat sink.
And opp can you please put that celeron to work folding. You havnt turned any work unit's in, in a while??
We are trying to pass 2cpu.com soon. and your dog celeron would be very handy, mines doing very good folding.
Just trying to get you motivated. No shots at you intended!!!!!!!!!!!! I recruit for our folding team everywhere, and keep an eye on everyone in case they slip a bit.
But you have this in your sig. So come on!!!!!

Come and join the folding team and see if your rig can Handle

with that 128k L2 its gonna suck in performance
but thats a sweet Overclock! should get that thing folding :D
i think it's pretty safe to assume that:DQuote:
is that in your prometeia opp??
You can get a 48 dollar xp1600 from newegg and get 13k in 3dmark. Thats what other chip can do it.:)
Was gonna say the same, Umgawa :)
Nice, OC OPP ;)
I wonder how a 3.2ghz celeron folds compared to say a 2ghz axp. Perhaps the celery is a better buy than a lower-clocked xp for a folding rig? :D
LoL sometimes I get buggy MM runs like that :D That's way too high :pQuote:

Hey OPP, that MM bench looks kindda.. hmmmm........ not real......Quote:

Well..... 39xxx on the CPU/MM..... that looks really sky high.... but If we compare it to 2.8G HyperT results.... it's like 3x higher.... :stick:
Yea apparentlly it was bugged.
OPP
Yep, exactly my point ;)Quote:

Could you post some numbers or screenshots? I've heard some conflicting reports about this. Some people are saying that with the new gromacs core cache starts to matter a lot more.Quote:

I'll post some after xmas is over. I havnt tried it on Gromacs, since no one has seen any in 2 weeks.
And unless people are on the beta team they shouldnt be folding any gromacs.
But i'll get you something to compare soon
what kind of cooling are u using and what is your vcore??? As u can see in my sig i have mine to 2.8 but i have shotty ram and cant get any higher. just ordered some corsair xms 2400, a swiftech mcx-4000, a vantech tornado 80mm 84.1 cfm fan and some arctic silver 3. im hoping to well over the 3.0 mark....maybe with a few pointers from the celeron master ....lol maybe i can get close to 3.5????!!??!
Roman79
enjoy
New 2.2 celeron folding
Thanks for posting that screenshot Tedinde
Wow, that thing is really cooking :D
I just checked and I'm crunching the same protein right now, so here is my Athlon XP @ just over 1700MHz (12 X 143) for comparison:

Oh, the celerys. Yea, mine did 3ghz at stock voltage until the board died. :(
Celeron@ 3.3 G= 1 frame per 1:20 or 80 seconds
Xp1600@ 1.7 G = 1 frame per 1:30 or 90 seconds
I got that right?
Looks like an OC'd xp still has the price/performance edge in Folding and Multimedia. Must be nice to have a near 100% OC though!
Wait till the gromacs come back. ;)
lol is it true that the 3dmark scores arnt even near a axp 1500 stock?
Bang for the buck, XP's are still better for folding. Sure would be nice to see more of your names on our folding team. Ive been there for only 2 months an in place 13 now.
Hint hint. that mean please sign up and help us out.
I havnt had a chance to try any gromacs out on the celeron, since there havnt been any in a while, and i am on the beta team, and no date on getting anymore.
My tbred 1800's @ 2ghz kill the celeron. plus you can buy 2 for the price of a celeron 2.2 which is around $120 now. I got it off the intel IPD for $78 though and the 2.0 for $59. Otherwise I wouldnt of spent the money on celeron's.
I can get 13.8k 3dmark out of the celeron
Hehe and on a Bd7 with an older bios, it shows as a true p4 on startup to all you "posers" out there. hehe.

My 190 dollar cpu will barley do 3g's :p
i had one of those chips, it did 3330 with 1.7 volts, and 3000 on LESS than stock volts. it was a crappy folder though.:(
i think ill go with a XP 1900+ Mobile processor, people are getting some real luck with them. seen one the other day @ 2.5ghz :slobber:
Where are those people getting those chips??Quote:

you can sometimes get them on ebay, and newegg has them... there is a 45w 1900+ there that has a stock core of 1.5v for $99
the other ones have a 1.4v core... dont ask me about the price difference cause i have no clue why they are so far apart. I heard newegg baught a bunch of them becasue they heard OCers like us where buying them up, as far as i know its the only 2 places you can get them, and besides the .1v core difference i dont think there is any difference between the two... if you can find out any more let me know
i started a thread here...
